Imagine a world where your clothes sense your blood pressure, heart rate and body temperature. Suppose the sensors transmit this information to 'the cloud', continuously and unobtrusively. Suppose artificial intelligence in 'the cloud' detects an anomaly. Suppose it tells your doctor: sighs of relief all round. But then suppose it tells an actuary, who tells your insurer, who tells your employer ... This is the world of pervasive adaptation. This Pervasive Day explores the potential - and perils - of daily living with pervasive adaptive computing. This is the result of saturating ourselves and o |
