User Interfaces and HCI for Ambient Intelligence and Smart Environments

  • Chapter
Handbook of Ambient Intelligence and Smart Environments

Abstract

As this book clearly demonstrates, there are many ways to create smart environments and to realize the vision of ambient intelligence. But whatever constitutes this smartness or intelligence, has to manifest itself to the human user through the human senses. Interaction with the environment can only take place through phenomena which can be perceived through these senses and through physical actions xecuted by the human. Therefore, the devices which create these phenomena (e.g., light, sound, force, …) or sense these actions are the user’s contact point with the underlying smartness or intelligence.
