  • Abstract
    In recent years, there has been much research on smart offices in which various information appliances, sensors, cameras and robots collaborate to support human office activities. The purpose of this paper is to make the smart office more intelligent by recognizing humans and detecting their whereabouts from many camera agents and sensor agents. We also present a practical example called Entrance System that uses some agents in a smart office. This system monitors visitors and if it judges the visitor to be a guest informs Entrance managers. that a guest is in the Entrance. We implemented this system in our office environments
