We discuss a generic architecture for building user-centric systems. The characteristic feature of such systems is a control
loop that monitors the user’s state, and produces a harmonized response. In order to adaptively respond to changes of the
user’s state, we propose an architecture with supervising loops. This allows the primary control loop to be written in a straight-forward
way, and add adaptivity on a different level. We illustrate our approach with an example scenario that describes computer
vision based adaptive interaction.
