Ambient Intelligence

Ambient Intelligence Group
The Ambient intelligence Group has been established in 2008 within the Center of Excellence in Cognitive Interaction Technology. They conduct research in the fields of wearable computing, pervasive/ubiquitous computing, tangible interaction, augmented reality, multimodal human-computer interaction, etc.

Wikipedia Definition & Overview
In computing, ambient intelligence (AmI) refers to electronic environments that are sensitive and responsive to the presence of people.

 

Ambient Intelligence Research (AIR) Lab at Stanford
A I R Lab is designed in the form of a smart room providing natural settings of a living environment while offering an ambient interface to its user through pervasive sensing, processing, and communication.

Semantics architecture of multimodal interaction for ambient intelligence applied to Nao robot
It seems very simple but it is not ! No programming at all. The robot is fully controlled by autonomous semantic agents able to really understand multimodal events coming from sensor (vocal & gestural kinect sensor) and acting with robot software and hardware.

Social Networking Meets Ambient Intelligence
Sharing small snippets of information about your daily life is a key feature of the online social networking revolution. Soon status updates and other social information could be generated automatically.
