Ambient Intelligence: Changing Forms of Human-Computer Interaction and their Social Implications
An online introduction to Ambient Intelligence (AmI) ...
"Ambient intelligence appears poised to cause remarkable changes in the way people live. With digital information, the ease of interaction between humans and computers can be greatly increased by broadening the interface media available and allowing for mobile and portable communication free of inhibiting wires and stationary units. Additionally, some forms of ambient intelligence allow computers to adapt to their user's preferences. The result of ambient intelligence is ultimately a more empowered computer with the benefits of added convenience, time and cost savings, and possibilities for increased safety, security, and entertainment.
Ambient intelligence (AmI) is a burgeoning field of information systems that has potential for great impact in the future. The term "ambient" is defined by Merriam-Webster's dictionary (Mish and Morse 1999) as "existing or present on all sides". The term Ambient Intelligence is defined by the Advisory Group to the European Community's Information Society Technology Program (ISTAG) as "the convergence of ubiquitous computing, ubiquitous communication, and interfaces adapting to the user" (Gupta 2003)." continued ...
