Ambient Devices, Ambient Intelligence

I like the part about facilitating everyday rituals. I believe this is the key thing that The Age of Spiritual Computing demands: creating a technological system that is so flexible and so lightweight that it can be applied to any area of human activity, enabling people to become more aware of their own habits, drives and intentions, and to actualize potentials through harmonizing themselves with the natural holistic intelligence of the human mind heart soul and body…

“In computing, ambient intelligence (AmI) refers to electronic environments that are sensitive and responsive to the presence of people. Ambient intelligence is a vision on the future of consumer electronics, telecommunications and computing that was originally developed in the late 1990s for the time frame 2010â€“2020. In an ambient intelligence world, devices work in concert to support people in carrying out their everyday life activities, tasks and rituals in easy, natural way using information and intelligence that is hidden in the network connecting these devices (see Internet of Things). As these devices grow smaller, more connected and more integrated into our environment, the technology disappears into our surroundings until only the user interface remains perceivable by users.”
