Hal is a highly interactive environment that uses embedded computation to observe and participate in the normal, everyday events occurring in the world around it. It has cameras for eyes, microphones for ears, and uses a variety of computer vision, speech and gesture recognition systems to allow people to interact naturally with it.

Virtual PAT: A Virtual Personal Aerobics Trainer(MIT)
A prototype system for implementing a virtual Personal Aerobics Trainer (PAT) is presented. This system allows the user to create and personalize an aerobics session to meet the user's needs and desires. Various media technology and computer vision algorithms are used to enhance the interaction of the character by enabling it to watch and talk to the user.
