Introduction
Vision of AmI is that the people will be surrounded by intelligent objects that can sense the context and respond according to the desire of the people

Ambient Intelligence: Environments that are sensitive and responsive to the presence of people.

Scenario I: Home Environment

Personalize the living space of humans Ease access to Information and Resources On-demand Large scale network of computing devices

Scenario II:

Automotive Intelligence

Online concierge services Tele Diagnosis Safety auto braking for active collision avoidance Route Planning

Key Concepts
Embedded. Many networked devices are integrated into the environment Context aware. The system can recognize you and your situational context. Personalized. The system can tailor itself to meet your needs

Adaptive. It can change in response to you Anticipatory. The system anticipates your desires without conscious mediation.

Key Technologies

Unobtrusive hardware -Miniaturization, Nanotechnology, smart

devices, sensors
Seamless mobile/fixed communication -interoperability, wired and wireless networks, service-oriented architecture, semantic web

Dynamic and massively distributed device networks-service

discovery, auto-configuration, end-user programmable devices and systems

Human-centric computer interfaces -intelligent agents, multimodal

interaction, context awareness

Key Characteristics
Ubiquity-embedded is present everywhere. Awareness-everyone is aware of the technology Intelligence-helps it in correct and appropriate responses

Natural Interaction-just like interacting with another human

Architecture

Components of AmI

Ambient Intelligence

Application Areas
Health-related
Public transportation

Education Services
Emergency Services

Production-oriented places

Challenges
Interoperability-is the ability of making systems and organizations
to work together . Saturation-they cannot saturate because the technology keeps on changing. Security-security concerns affect the AmI

Conclusion
Ambient Intelligence (AmI) is growing fast as a multidisciplinary topic of interest which can allow many areas of research AmI envisions a world where people are surrounded by intelligent and intuitive interfaces embedded in the everyday objects & physical environments . Technology will not be the limiting factor in realizing ambient intelligence
