Ambient Intelligence (AI) is a developing technology that makes our everyday environment more sensitive and responsive to our presence. AI requires technology invisibly embedded in our surroundings, present whenever we need it that will seamlessly integrate lighting, sound, vision, domestic appliances, and personal healthcare products to enhance our living experience. Written for the non-specialist, True Visions explains how the devices making up the AI world will operate collectively using information and intelligence hidden in the wireless network connecting them. Expert contributions address key components such as smart materials and textiles, system architecture, mobile computing, broadband communication, and underlying issues of human-environment interactions. The book unifies the perspectives of scientists from diverse backgrounds, ranging from the physics of materials to the aesthetics of industrial design to chronicle the emergence of ambient intelligence.

Handbook of Measuring System Design, 3 Volume Set
The most comprehensive and up-to-date reference work coveringthe scientific fundamentals and practical considerations fordesigning, developing and implementing measuring systems in a broadrange of engineering and technological fields. <p/> Measuring systems lie at the heart of all science, engineeringand technology, and are used to quantify physical phenomena such astemperature, pressure, voltage and current. Rapid advances incomputing and electronics have enabled the development of highlysophisticated measuring systems that can be utilised across manyindustrial fields. <p/> The Handbook of Measuring System Design provides anauthoritative and comprehensive reference that addresses a widerange of measurement-specific design and application problems inthe fields of engineering and technology. Building on athorough treatment of foundational topics the Handbook presents amodern, 'systems thinking' approach and covers manyareas that have received little attention elsewhere (systems, safety, design, legal and artificial intelligence).
