A museum is an important place for science education for children. The learning method in the museum is reading exhibits and explanations. Museums are investing efforts to quantify interests using questionnaires and sensors to improve their exhibitions and explanations. Therefore, even in places where many people gather, such as in museums, it is necessary to quantify people's interest by sensing behavior of multiple people. However, this has not yet been realized. We aim to quantify the interest by sensing a wide range of human behavior for multiple people by coordinating multiple noncontact sensors. When coordinating multiple sensors, the coordinates and the time of each sensor differ. To solve these problems, coordinates were transformed using a simultaneous transformation matrix and time synchronization was performed using unified time. The effectiveness of this proposal was verified through experimental evaluation. Furthermore, we evaluated the actual museum content. In this paper, we describe the proposed method and the results of the evaluation experiment.
博物馆是儿童科学教育的重要场所。博物馆的学习方法是阅读展品和说明。博物馆正在努力通过使用问卷和传感器来量化兴趣，以改进他们的展览和解释。因此，即使在像博物馆这样人群聚集的地方，也有必要通过感测多人的行为来量化人们的兴趣。然而，这尚未实现。我们的目标是通过协调多个非接触式传感器来感测多人的广泛行为来量化兴趣。在协调多个传感器时，每个传感器的坐标和时间都不同。为了解决这些问题，使用同步变换矩阵转换了坐标，并使用统一的时间进行了时间同步。通过实验评估验证了该提案的有效性。此外，我们还对实际的博物馆内容进行了评估。在本文中，我们将介绍所提出的方法和评估实验的结果。
