Zusammenfassung
In this paper we present a new approach towards assistance
and awareness systems that exploits the duality of automated
homes; the status of devices and appliances in the real world
on the one hand, and their digital representation on the other
hand. If the digital representation is embedded in a virtual
world, i.e., a 3-D model that reflects the actual physical environment,
we call this a Dual Reality (2R). The concept of
Dual Reality emerges from the connection between real and
virtual environments, so that they can mutually reflect and
influence each other. This approach can be used to create
new applications and to enhance already existing applications
both in the real and also in the virtual world. In this
paper, we show how the standard-based Universal Remote
Console (URC) platform can be applied to Dual Reality applications
and therefore can serve as an architectural foundation
for synchronizing a virtual environment model with
the real world.
