On Friday 9 November 2007, the Sentient Graffiti platform was presented in AmI-07, the European Conference on Ambient Intelligence), as result of the presentation for the paper “A Web 2.0 Platform to Enable Context-Aware Mobile Mash-ups” accepted for such conference. The presentation given explained why Sentient Graffiti constitutes a suitable Internet-of-Thing enabling platform useful for third-party developers willing to build their own context-aware mobile mash-ups. Furthermore, the generic multi-modal mobile client provided by Sentient Graffiti capable of discovering, filtering and consuming surrounding smart services by simply pointing (barcode recognition), touching (NFC-RFID), being in the proximity (Bluetooth) or in a given location range (GPS) of augmented smart objects was also described.
Sentient Graffiti Project
Sentient Graffiti enables mobile users to profit from the benefits of Ubiquitous Computing in uncontrolled environments, only requiring in exchange, the participation in a community of users interested on publishing and consuming context-aware empowered annotations and services. Users annotate objects and spatial regions with multimedia data or web services which are only made available to other users when those match the contextual attributes (location range, period of time, and so forth) previously assigned to the resources.
