Abstract

Technological advances allow networked and context-aware computer systems to be integrated into devices, environments, everyday objects, and garments. The idea is that such smart environments and artifacts are able to perceive the users’ context and activity, anticipate their needs, and act to provide proactive support. Old-age ubiquitous computing has the potential to increase the length of time that both individuals and groups are able to lead independent lives, even at an advanced age. Examples of this range from smart reading-glasses that are capable of reading articles to the user, all the way to body implants designed to increase human perceptive, cognitive, and motor capabilities.
