FutureFuture
17-1
The Future• Technologies - what we can do• Desires - what we want• Emerging Technologies - what we
think we can do
The Future• Problems - what we can't do or must fix• Regulations - what we're allowed to do• Standards - how we will do it collectively• Challenges - what else?
17-2
Database Support• Lots of sensor data
– Collect & assimilate– Predict, decide, trigger events
• Multimedia• How can this all be done efficiently?
17-3
Complex Predictions• Point is to relieve us of some burdens
– Have coffee ready– Adjust thermostat– Turn on computer & have my email ready– These things are relatively easy!
Complex Predictions• Learn patterns - predict location & activity
– Not stagnant, change– Interactions – Multiple inhabitants
• Takes data + algorithms
17-4
Robotic Assistants• Smart environment not necessarily a
stationary entity• Robotic Agents, aka Robots
– Clean & cook– Repair work– Deliver in office
17-5
Network Support• Must have continuous connectivity for data
collection & exchange among devices• Devices are mobile & stationary• Different technologies
– Cable, DSL, 802.11, etc.– Heterogeneous devices
17-6
Increased Scope• Single, confined space• Entire home with robots• Connected to me when I'm not home
Increased Scope• Communities
– Schools– Hospitals– Shopping center– Highways– Airports …
