Ambient intelligence for optimal manufacturing and energy efficiency

Ambient Intelligence in Manufacturing: Organizational Implications

There are several references to research projects involving the Ambient Intelligence concept (AmI) in technical publications. These are mainly focused on applications linked to the everyday life of individuals at home, in the street, in the car, in public spaces – and largely related to leisure and to a specific concept of quality of life. But, we wonder, how does the AmI concept apply to the m...

Optimal Experience in Ambient Intelligence

Ambient Intelligence (AmI) will radically change how people interact with technology. In AmI, people will be surrounded by a multitude of interconnected embedded systems. These devices will be able to locate and recognize objects and people, as well as people’s intentions. The term “intelligence” in this regard refers to the fact that the digital environment is able to analyze the context, adap...

Ambient Intelligence as One of the Key ICT Factors for Energy Efficiency in Buildings

Ambient intelligence (AmI) is a multidisciplinary paradigm based on the Invisible Computer and Ubiquitous Computing. In AmI, technologies are deployed to make computers disappear in the background, while the human user moves into the foreground in complete control of the augmented environment. AmI is a user-centric paradigm, it supports a variety of artificial intelligence methods and works per...

How Ambient Intelligence Will Improve Habitability and Energy Efficiency in Buildings

A Survey on Ambient Intelligence in Manufacturing Environment

Ambient Intelligence (AmI) is a new research field aiming at building digital environments that are aware of the humans presence, their behaviors and needs. Among the key features, context-awareness plays the most important role in any ambient intelligence system. In this paper, we provide an overview of the notion AmI with its key technology features, typical contextaware frameworks and existi...
