| Annotation | Ambient intelligence is where people are surrounded by intelligent intuitive interfaces that are embedded in all kinds of objects and an environment that is capable of recognising and responding to the presence of different individuals in a seamless, unobtrusive and often invisible way. This publication discusses the possibilities, technological challenges, and ethical and privacy issues in delivering ambient intelligent services to users with disabilities not only in the home but also for generally interacting with the environment. The aim is to raise awareness of the possibilities of ambient intelligent systems for providing useful services to people with disabilities and older people. Further information is also available on the Tiresias website (www.tiresias.org/cost219ter). (RH). |
