Abstract: Social interaction is important for wellbeing and productivity. However, today's work settings often prevent natural communication: e.g., branches of companies, or research projects are working at different sites across cities and countries. To further the benefits of collocated social interaction, there is a need for systems which support natural communication by making spontaneous meetings with remote partners possible. In this paper we detail a part of the algorithmic backbone for such a system. We describe an integrated algorithm to track people and reason about their positions in an ambient intelligent environment. We present a human tracking solution for an indoor environment ubiquitously equipped with cameras. With this system we are robustly able to detect and track people by integrating a human detection algorithm with spatial reasoning over distributed sensory horizons.
