    Abstract

    The paper presents and outlines the demonstration of Presentation Trainer, a prototype that works as a public speaking instructor. It tracks and analyses the body posture, movements and voice of the user in order to give in- structional feedback on non-verbal communication skills. Besides exploring the background of the feedback theory used by the prototype, this paper describes its conceptual implementation and proposes its use and deployment for the con- ference demonstration.
