Location-based Ambient Intelligence

This analysis aims to cover the emerging area of ambient intelligence, a much-used term that will look to bring together many of today’s major technology innovations, such as Internet of Things (IoT), big data, connected home, wearable sensors, and smartphones. It combines advances in always-on location, voice and image recognition, augmented reality, machine learning, artificial intelligence (AI), sensor fusion, and data analytics. The result over the next 5 years will be major advances in applications such as local search, social networking, retail, advertising, and health / fitness.

This analysis considers the role that always-on, ubiquitous location will have in enabling these major changes, where the basic concept of ambient intelligence is defined, along with the current and future location technologies that will be facilitators. The analysis also looks at how major companies are now aligning their resources to meet this future market, outlining potential advantages, gaps, acquisition targets, and partnerships. Finally, it looks at the key verticals that will drive the initial adoption of ambient intelligence, with forecasts for the technologies, devices, and applications required for location-based ambient intelligence in each market.
