There is a new DARPA solicitation that might be of interest:

DARPA is soliciting innovative research proposals in the area of natural
communication with computers. This program is a 6.1 basic research effort that
aims to accelerate progress toward two-way communication between people and
computers in which the machine is more than merely a receiver of commands and
in which a full range of natural modes is tapped, including potentially
language, gesture and facial or other expressions. For further details see:
