  Abstract:  The article presents the solution that won the Imagine Cup 2007 National Finals and represented Romania at the Imagine Cup 2007 Software Design Invitational Worldwide Finals in Seoul, Korea August 5- 11, 2007. In 2007, the Imagine Cup Theme was "Imagine a world where technology enables a better education for all. We created a unique solu- tion that enables styles of natural interaction with a smart omnipresent hu- manlike entity, as it exploits human thinking within the education domain on an instant question answering based type of learning - self-education: KnowledgeSense. The solution takes advantage of intelligent devices and technologies that increasingly pervade modern environments - humans in- teract and learn intuitively while having a rich and complete experience with a virtual human person - Anna - that recognizes speech and gestures. Plus, it is also reachable through widely used communication channels like phones - SMS messages, VoIP or PSTN calls - and instant messaging networks. This approach emphasizes natural behavior by providing the opportunity to adapt to human needs and not reverse.
