Ambient Intelligence

International Journal of Scientific Research in Computer Science, Engineering and Information Technology, 2019

Human life is now going in such an environment where technologies become closer friends and family members. We prefer our cell phones to utilize our times rather than spending it with family members. Even we do more interaction with machines with compare to humans. Ambient Intelligence (AmI) is a modern technology in Computer Science and Information Technology (IT) that has potential for great impact in the future. The concept of AmI is that the people will be surrounded by intelligent objects that can sense the context and Situation and that can respond according to the desire of the people. AmI is a multidisciplinary area that combines the features of many areas in Computer Science. In last five years, we have seen significant advancement in various technologies that is mainly in three key area, that are Virtual Environments, Mobile Communication and Sensors. By combining these three areas we get the new technique named as Ambient Intelligence (AmI).

The research field of ambient media starts to spread rapidly and first applications for consumer homes are on the way. Ambient media is the logical continuation of research around media. Media has been evolving from old media (e.g. print media), to integrated presentation in one form (multimedia - or new media), to generating a synthetic world (virtual reality), to the natural environment is the user-interface (ambient media), and will be evolving towards real/synthetic undistinguishable media (bio-media or bio-multimedia). After the IT bubble was bursting, multimedia was lacking a vision of potential future scenarios and applications. Within this research paper the potentials, applications, and market available solutions of mobile ambient multimedia are studied. The different features of ambient mobile multimedia are manifold and include wearable computers, adaptive software, context awareness, ubiquitous computers, middleware, and wireless networks. The paper especially focuses on algorithms and methods that can be utilized to realize modern mobile ambient systems.

Abstract:-Configuration of the computing and communications systems found at home and in the workplace is a complex system design that currently requires the attention of the user. Recently, researchers have begun to explore computers that would autonomously configure their functionality based on observations of who or what is surrounding them. By determining their context, using input from sensor systems distributed throughout the environment, computing devices could personalize themselves to their current user, adapt their behaviour according to their location, or interact to their surroundings. This field of intelligence is called Ambient Intelligence (AmI). There has been increasing interest in building networks with AmI, which incorporates the user-centricity and context awareness, or in short AmI is a new information paradigm where people are empowered through a digital environment that is “aware ” of their presence, context and is sensitive, adaptive, responsive to their need...

McLuhan's statement, "the medium is the message" is all-present in discussions within the media community. However, how does ubiquitous and pervasive computation impact when the medium is 'inside' the natural environment of humans? How do location based services, context awareness, emotional responsive interfaces, touch and gesture based interfaces, haptic devices, biometrics, sensor data fusion, mobile embedded systems, distributed networks, and smart data mining change the way of how media are presented, distributed, and consumed? These technical enablers go far beyond existing well known computer screen concepts or simple keyboard and mouse interaction methods. Within the scope of the tutorial several aspects and viewpoints of ambient media are presented: media, technology, HCI, and business. The tutorial presents case-studies and latest research methods in the field of ambient media. Examples of existing services are coming from ambient assisting living, user experience design, sensor networks, distributed systems, and mobile location based services ambient media are explained in further detail. The tutorial intends to train participants in the principles of ambient media and its concepts, content creation techniques, and methods. The tutorial rounds up with a more visionary viewpoint towards media technology in the future: the use of biological metaphors in presenting media, shortly called biological media -'biomedia'.

Ambient Intelligence (AmI) has emerged in the past 10 years as a multidisciplinary field within ubiquitous computing, attracting considerable research, funding and public attention and leading to many research groups, and conferences specifically focused on Ambient Intelligence topics. From its conception, AmI has always been a field strongly driven by a particular vision of how ICT technologies would shape our future. This has given the AmI vision, essentially as proposed by ISTAG, an excessively central role in shaping the field and setting its research agenda. We argue that this inspiring vision should no longer be the main driver for AmI research and that we should now re-interpret its role in the background of 10 years of research. In this paper, we reflect on what it means for AmI to move behind its foundational vision and we identify a number of emerging trends around some of its core concepts, more specifically the notion of intelligence, the system view and the requirements...
