Abstract

Integration of innovative pervasive technologies into the surrounding environment creates ambient intelligence which has become the subject of several scientific and academic considerations. In particular, the pervasive technology is based on Internet of Things (IoT) and Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). Ambient intelligence may be viewed from several perspectives: a technological, multi-aspect and visionary point of view. Several predictors influence the level of ambient intelligence. The aim is to identify significant predictors influencing ambient intelligence and simultaneously determine their impact on the achieved level of ambient intelligence of the company. In the research methodology, we acknowledge the research presumptions, the research question and research hypotheses, the measurement instrument, obtained data and methods used in accordance with the research model. The scientific article presents the results of an empirical study conducted on 206 enterprises, focusing on the examining of the influence of selected predictors on the level of ambient intelligence in enterprises in the Slovak Republic. It examines not only the influence of selected predictors on the level of ambient intelligence, but also their mutual interaction. We found that these activities even build ambient intelligence on their own, although in interaction with each other, their effect on the level of ambient intelligence begins to fade. Therefore, it is necessary to opt for their combination appropriately. Finally, we present the limits of the research and suggestions on further directions of research in this field.

Highlights

  • Innovative pervasive technology and the internet network, which have caused the industrial revolution in society, are becoming hyper-aware systems, representing highly flexible technologies, following clear algorithms, responding to human commands and to their own perception and direction

  • We examine the influence of selected predictors on the level of ambient intelligence in enterprises in the Slovak Republic

  • In the following part of the partial analysis and conclusion construction, in order to construct the answers to the research question, we examed through correlation analysis the dependence between variables, predictors affecting the building of ambient intelligence of a company (AMI level), which generally suggests some possibility of prediction

Summary

Introduction

Innovative pervasive technology and the internet network, which have caused the industrial revolution in society, are becoming hyper-aware systems, representing highly flexible technologies, following clear algorithms, responding to human commands and to their own perception and direction. Literature shows that in connection to the integration of innovative technologies in business processes, we encounter the concepts of data collection and analysis, new ubiquitous technologies, sophisticated sensors, robotics, cloud computing, Internet of Things (IoT), digital manufacturing, autonomy, interoperability of systems, digitization, virtualization, artificial intelligence, augmented intelligence, surrounding intelligence. Implementation of such technologies in business processes creates a new environment called ambient intelligence of a company. Ambient intelligence is the founding concept of normative visions for information technologies in the European Union.
