Abstract;The Stick-on Communicator (StiC) is a compact wireless device with a built-in sensor and actuator that can be attached to any real-world object including a person. It has an adaptive sensing function that enables control of processing parameters for sensing to be controlled via the network and a precise location-detection function using infrared light. These functions enables flexible value-added sensing services that faithfully reflect real-world situations. New broadband + ubiquitous services provided by combining real video images with information obtained from StiCs will lead to an advanced communication style that enables easy and natural access to remote objects.
