Soon, connected technology will be embedded in hundreds of everyday objects we already use: our cars, wallets, watches, umbrellas, even our trash cans. These objects will respond to our needs, come to know us, and learn to think on our behalf. David Rose calls these devices--which are just beginning to creep into the marketplace--Enchanted Objects. Some believe the future will look like more of the same--more smartphones, tablets, screens embedded in every conceivable surface. Rose has a different vision: technology that atomizes, combining itself with the objects that make up the very fabric of daily living. Such technology will be woven into the background of our environment, enhancing human relationships and channeling desires for omniscience, long life, and creative expression. The enchanted objects of fairy tales and science fiction will enter real life. Groundbreaking, timely, and provocative, Enchanted Objects is a blueprint for a better future, where efficient solutions come hand in hand with technology that delights our senses. 000707063 520__ $$aAn MIT Media Lab scientist and founder of Ambient Devices presents a blueprint for a better future where everyday objects use embedded technology to intuit human needs and improve lives, creating "enchanted objects." 000707063 650_0 $$aInformation technology$$xSocial aspects. 000707063 650_0 $$aTechnological innovations$$xSocial aspects. 000707063 650_0 $$aInternet of things. 000707063 650_0 $$aEmbedded Internet devices. 000707063 650_0 $$aUbiquitous computing. 000707063 85200 $$bgen$$hHM851$$i.R67$$i2014 000707063 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:707063$$pGLOBAL_SET 000707063 980__ $$aBIB 000707063 980__ $$aBOOK
