Reducing iPhone disabilities now: Some of Apple's new assistive features use #sensors to improve the device's limited ability to perceive user's #intent. Awareness later: Those + other sensors for 24/7 #awareness of user & #context to support every user's Constant Next Scenario.

Good interface development by Acconeer. Generally, adding a sensor system can improve: Ease of use Accessibility Adaptability Resilience "Lather, rinse, repeat" for device awareness. Next: disambiguation. #sensors #atleast3 #ambientawareness #UI #UX #aware

On-device processing for #Siri = Better privacy AND A step toward edge #resilience. 'All #sensors, always-on' + pattern recognition. Minimum requirements for #Ambient #Awareness: 24/7 #awareness of user #intent & #context for the #ConstantNextScenario.

SIGGRAPH21- My pick for most valuable xR session: Intro to producing spatial audio AR, by Aki Järvinen s2021.siggraph.org/presentation/?…… #audiodisplay #SpatialAudio #binaural #AR #XR #AmbientAwareness

Thanks, Kate! Example of multimodal display that doesn't require context awareness to communicate adaptively. #contextaware #tactile #adaptive #personalization

EarComp 2021 (EarComp 2025) now: Encouraging. The workshop approaches personal auditory display + sensing + data analysis in pursuit of personal #context #awareness, based on the eSense platform. Pervasive Systems team, Nokia Bell Labs Cambridge. More at: eSense.io

Substantive review-ML2 headset: cnet.co/3tTmk2d It actually describes the spatial audio functionality & utility instead of ignoring audio display. ...now if only content devs & clients-consumer + enterprise - would make full use of it! #audiodisplay #AR #fovealoverload

Deep Mind states the foundational imperative for context-aware hyperpersonalization of #AR in one sentence: "Real-world data contains complex patterns that play out over long contexts in space or time." #context #ambientawareness #effectiveness

Congratulations Anton Zeilinger, sharing the 2022 Nobel Prize in Physics! Here he's discussing quantum teleportation @ Scope1 conf, Vienna 1999. Along with: @wasbuxton, Brewster Kahle, Bill Schilit, Andy Cameron, @dsmall232, Ted Nelson, Turner Whitted, Hani Rashid, John Thackera

1/ A thread on emergence in #complexsystems "A central idea in complexity science is that complex systems are spontaneous products of their parts and the interactions among them."

Good book for plenty of skilled ML/AI professionals, and all the e/acc fanboys & pontificators.

Looks like the pushback is starting. Major concerns about copyright and liability from major brands in regards to AI 🧵1/4 adage.com/article/digita…

The rise of Digital Public Infrastructures (DPI) as a transformative approach to digital transformation demands more than regulation; it needs proactive governance for the common good. My latest paper w/ David Eaves + Beatriz Vasconcellos explores that approach: ucl.ac.uk/bartlett/publi…

Another marketing email from Humane today. Likely: Little interest in buying their patents.
