Atos Consulting Look Out | Ubiquitous Computing

Concept

Ubiquitous Computing represents a world where information processing has been integrated into everyday objects and activities. It also represents an individual’s engagement with many devices and systems simultaneously in the course of ordinary activities, and may not necessarily even be aware that they are doing so.
Computing power is everywhere and in everything that we do.

Trajectory

Small, inexpensive networked processing devices are today becoming more commonly distributed throughout our everyday world.
In the future these devices will interact to share information about status, events, or to control processes. For example, home lighting may be connected with environmental controls and personal biometric monitors woven into clothing so that the lights and temperature are adjusted continually to suit the individual and the outside environment.
Another example might be a fridge and its awareness of tagged items as they enter and leave, enabling it to automatically order standard items when they become low, suggest menus, or alert for items that are past their best-before date.
It will be some years before this level of automation is achieved, but progress in all the aspects involved is being made at an extraordinary rate.
