“…In the area of commercial facilities planning, computer applications provide help not only in the appropriate layout of certain store types, services and community spaces of multi-unit facilities and shopping centers, but also in the optimization of product type placement and internal customer traffic [40] in certain store units. In addition to striving for realistic processes, more sophisticated visualization, development of validation procedures and making them more economical, are some of the most current research processes among the relevant directions of development [41][42] [43]. The use of human mass movement simulations in the built environment not only helps to design a safer environment, but by depicting complex movement processes, it enables optimized and human-centered planning of buildings and cities.…”

Understanding the movements of crowds offers more and more opportunities in the field of architecture, in both active and passive methods of implementation. The study briefly describes crowd dynamics, the new field of research as well as the levels of investigation of human mass movements. Due to its expected large-scale spread, it particularly describes the need for and the possibilities of individual human body motion detection in retail facilities while emphasizing the architectural aspects of the rise of innovative commercial facilities. It details and compares the operational processes of modern-day queue-free “convenience” stores, Amazon Go with JWO technology, and Żabka Nano units operating according to AiFi, highlighting their architectural features.

“…Some of the attempts include combining 360 o video with storytelling [85], using immersivity to present maritime and underwater heritage [86], employing emotions to enhance narrations on CH subjects [87,88], presenting stories that are part of the intangible heritage of a community [89], and simplifying the design of immersive CH presentations [90]. In the same context, other research efforts were focused on the development of virtual guides with an emphasis on realism, emotional sensitivity, and meaningful dialogue [91,92].…”

A roadmap is proposed that defines a systematic approach for craft preservation and its evaluation. The proposed roadmap aims to deepen craft understanding so that blueprints of appropriate tools that support craft documentation, education, and training can be designed while achieving preservation through the stimulation and diversification of practitioner income. In addition to this roadmap, an evaluation strategy is proposed to validate the efficacy of the developed results and provide a benchmark for the efficacy of craft preservation approaches. The proposed contribution aims at the catalyzation of craft education and training with digital aids, widening access and engagement to crafts, economizing learning, increasing exercisability, and relaxing remoteness constraints in craft learning.

“…To overcome this problem and boost the dataset available, Yin et. al [36] proposed the one-man-crowd paradigm, where a single actor repeatedly added new motions until the entire crowd was recorded. This method thus suggests the potential to gather fullbody motions from an individual actor to form multiple agents that populate the scene.…”

Figure 1: Scenario with one actor jumping between several "agent avatars" and interacting with the user when necessary. (a) The user enters the scene and discovers three agent avatars. All three agent avatars are playing pre-recorded, loopable clips. Two of them portray customers while the third one acts as the barista. An actor, who is invisible to the user, is ready to take over any of the agent avatars and interact with the user. (b) The actor realizes that the participant intended to interact with agent avatar number 0, who is playing the role of a barista. Consequently, the actor plans to take control of that agent avatar and embody it to respond to and interact with the user. (c) The actor takes control of Avatar0 and is now interacting with the user. Meanwhile, all the other agent avatars continue to play their pre-recorded clips. (d) The actor releases control of Avatar0 and switches to another agent avatar to interact with the user. This creates the illusion that all three agent avatars were being controlled by real humans.
