Summary

1. Sensors: Key to the Success of Context-Aware Computing

2. Larger Scope of Awareness Need for a variety of sensors

3. Devices will be fully aware of

– themselves/their surrounding

– environment/changes

4. Personal Assistant, a major app: Like having an admin 7x24

5. Sensors will:– Enrich “my life” by catering to my wants/needs

– make my UI to be more secure/delightful

– notify me of impending health issues

– make social interactions more secure/delightful

6. Sensors around the planet help address issues affecting all7. Sensors keep track of things which you normally do not,

even things happening in the Universe

13 Sensors are key to deliver on Context-Aware Computing promise


14/16


hat does this mean?

1. As the sphere of context grows, so do the # and typeof sensors

2. Will require Robust/Secure Comms Infrastructure

3. Security, Privacy, Identity will be major concerns

4. Storage needs will be large

5. Processing needs will be tremendous

6. Band-width demands will be higher

7. Energy needs will be huge

8. Reliability will be a great concern

9. Sensing and Sense-making will “must-have”

14 ~ 1 Trillion Sensors will have a major impact on everything


15/16


Call To Action

1. Build a range of sensors way beyond motion sensors

by to fulfill the contextual promise

2. Prepare for sensor volume to explode

3. Build robust, reliable, accurate, self-calibrating andstable sensors

4. Build robust sensor fusion engines based on accuratealgorithms that are heuristic and predictive

5. Develop sensor strategy around energy harvesting, atleast for remote sensors

6. Build redundancy into sensors for robustness

7. Build ecosystem of companies (processing, storage,Comms, SW, energy, …) to deliver on top usages

8. Build for Security, privacy, and Identity protection
