Abstract
Abstract: Nowadays, the world is getting increasingly competitive and the quality and the amount of the work presented are one of the decisive factors when choosing an employee. It is no longer necessary to only perform but, to achieve a product with quality, on time, at the lowest possible cost and with the minimum resources. For this reason, the employee must have a high score of attention when performing a task, and the factors that influence attention negatively must be reduced. This is true in many different domains, from the workplace to the classroom. In this paper, we present a nonintrusive smart environment for monitoring people's attention when working in teams. The presented system provides real time information about each individual and information about the team. It can be very useful for team managers to identify potentially distracting events or individuals because when the attention of an individual is not at its best when performing the proposed task, her/his performance will be negatively affected, with consequences for the individual and for the organization.
