Abstract:
The success of smartphones and other mobile devices has led to a
significant increase in in-vehile use of such devices. This presents
challenges such as managing driver attention but also creates rich
opportunities by integrating these devices with vehicle computing and
communication systems. In this talk, I will review our visual mimo
project that seeks to develop an alternate mode of communication in
the visual spectrum. Visual mimo uses camera receivers and visual
transmitter arrays to achieve larger communication ranges, yet still
maintains the wide field-of-view necessary in the highly mobile
vehicular environment. The large number of highly directional receiver
elements also significantly improves localization of the transmitter
source, which can be helpful for presenting information on mobile
devices. In a second example, I will describe an in-vehicle
localization system for mobile devices that leverages the existing
Bluetooth network and car audio infrastructure. Mobile devices can
find their position in the vehicle using a series of customized high
frequency audio signals and adapt their functions to the position.
Based on lessons learned from these projects, I will then discuss how
mobile devices and vehicle communications systems can come together to
create an improved, augmented driving experience.
Bio: Marco Gruteser is an Associate Professor of Electrical and
Computer Engineering at Rutgers University and a member of the
Wireless Information Network Laboratory (WINLAB). He is a pioneer in
the area of location privacy and also recognized for his work on
connected vehicle applications. Beyond these topics, his 90+
peer-reviewed articles and patents span a wide range of wireless,
mobile systems, and pervasive computing issues. He received his MS and
PhD degrees from the University of Colorado in 2000 and 2004,
respectively, and has held research and visiting positions at the IBM
T. J. Watson Research Center and Carnegie Mellon University. His
recognitions include an NSF CAREER award, a Rutgers Board of Trustees
Research Fellowship for Scholarly Excellence, as well as best paper
awards at ACM MobiCom 2012, ACM MobiCom 2011 and ACM MobiSys 2010. His
work has been featured in numerous media outlets including the MIT
Technology Review, NPR, the New York Times, and CNN TV.
