When Livemode starts again, you should have a Kinect menu item on the left menu. Make sure Kinect is plugged in and positioned so that it can capture the interaction space in front of Furhat. Visual sensorsĬurrently Furhat supports the Microsoft Kinect, an affordable camera/IR/microphone-sensor, and the Intel Realsense SR300 camera. If they are green, the sound level has not reached the level to activate the listening. Note: you can monitor the speech level indicator bars on the microphone or dashboard pages. If the setting is too low, he will register speech too often which will make the application seem unresponsive. If the setting is to high, Furhat will not register that a user tries to speak. The threshold of the microphone is an important setting in order for the system to know when someone is starting and stopping to speak. If you have access to a Kinect, you can use it as a Microphone by selecting this option. Furhat will then be able to differentiate between different user's speech using these. If you have multiple microphones, you should use the stereo option where you get to select two microphones. If you test using a headset, or the built-in microphone in your laptop, this is the option you would use. If you don't need to separate the speech of individual users, a single microphone is enough. Furhat supports several types of microphones mono-microphones (for example table-top microphones), stereo microphones (for example singstar microphones) or Kinect array microphone.įor the development server, the built-in microphone of a laptop can work, but a headset is advised. The choice of microphones is essential to spoken dialogue systems. Using Furhat through the proxy Java client
