PERVASIVE COMPUTING By Ahmed Abdullah Ezaddin INTRODUCTION Everyone of us are used to computers that provide quick computations and communications but have we ever thought of devices which are very tiny almost invisible and provide the same function ? Ya !!!!! it is possible with help of concept called ‘Pervasive Computing’ . Based on the vision of Mark Weiser A DEFINITION….. Pervasive computing is the trend towards increasingly ubiquitous connected computing devices in the environment, a trend being brought about by a convergence of advanced electronic and particularly, wireless- technologies and the Internet . It spreads intelligence and connectivity to more or less everything. ADVANTAGES OF PERVASIVE COMPUTING Quick , efficient and effortless. It supports a new class of intelligent and portable appliances or "smart devices" . It gives people convenient access to relevant information . It removes the complexity of new technologies. UBIQUITOUS VS PERVASIVE in Ubiquitous it may be an only computer with multiple access points and shared user space (cloud computing) in Pervasive computers are everywhere, but they don't have to have an user interface, or necessarily be controllable by users. MOBILE VS PERVASIVE Mobile implies computers are so small and low power that can be carried around. pervasive implies that are so tiny and cheap that can be placed inside things that could need one. MOBILE VS UBIQUITOUS VS PERVASIVE COMPUTING Mobile computing is when you bring the computer with you. Example smartphones, prisoner anklets. Ubiquitous computing is wherever you go, there is a computer you can use. Example internet caffee, mainframe terminals. Pervasive computing is when computers are everywhere inside all things, maybe also within you. Example IoT, Star trek Replicant. APPLICATIONS Remote computers will monitor our heath statistics Cars will use the Internet to find an open parking space or the nearest vegetarian restaurant for their owners Used in Digi-tickers or implanted heart monitors In development of Smart Clothes. HOW SMART CLOTHES WORK ????? Weaving The Digital Fabric • Silk organza is ideal for A micrograph of silk organza. You can see the copper foil that is wrapped around the horizontal threads. computerized clothing because it is made with two fibers that make it conducive to electricity. SMART -T-SHIRT The shirt was being designed for soldiers in combat, so that medical personnel could find the exact location of a bullet wound. The smart shirt can monitor both heart and breathing rates An early prototype of the smart shirt developed at Georgia Tech CONCLUSION Pervasive computing provides an attractive vision for the future of computing Computational power will be available everywhere through mobile and stationary devices When Edison finally found a filament that would burn, did he see the possibility of silent but pervasive electrical current flowing throughout our homes, cars and communities?

Ahmed Abdullah Ezaddin 13 INTRODUCTION: Wearable devices are a new form of mobile computer system that is subsumed into the personal space of a user, controlled by the user, and has both operational and interactional constancy, i.e., is always on and accessible that provides exclusive and user-personalized services 14 POWER SUPPLY: Requirement of desired power will be delivered to the devices by employing batteries. Desired power depends upon the device employed for the application. Example: .Texas Instruments (TI) has a device, the bq25570 , which can take the 300 to 400 mv that is collected by energy harvesters and boosts up to an power of 3 to 5 volts. 15 SENSOR: Sensors are sophisticated devices that are frequently used to detect and respond to physical parameter (for example: temperature, blood pressure, humidity, speed, etc.) into a signal which can be measured electrically. Types: Tactile sensors Gas sensors Bio sensors 16 HOME HEALTH and WEARABLE DEVICE INNOVATION 17 ACTIVITY MONITOR: Sensor: Accelerometer Senses each step, App converts steps in to calories burned. Tracks quality of sleep. Fit Bit TRICODER: Sensor: Temperature Heart Rate Sensing ECG Heart Rate Velocity Blood Pressure Blood Oxygen Levels 18 scanadu SMART WATCHES: Indicates temperature provides streaks keeps track of delivery status and displays. keeps tracks of the day to day activities of news, top stories. 19 Displays personal activities which are to be taken care .provides googled information. provides information regarding on going activities of what to be happen in our location. keeps tracks of travelling and views the status whenever we required,. 20 DIGITAL PARENTING: The system captures the sound in the baby's room so parents can listen in on their phone or tablet like any standard monitor. It's a bold move, but works with the 2-way communication functionality and the nightlight / lullaby music modes. It records and streams in HD and the infrared vision wide lens makes it a great option for bed time. For extra security, the Home camera also monitors air quality. 21 SMART CLOTHES TO SMART OBJECTS: Smart clothes keeps tracks of the fitness level by providing information regarding the burned calories of the user. Smart clothes are able to regulate the temperature change of the body by continuous monitoring. 22 IN INDUSTRY AND MILITARY: The critical operations of the industrial which are impossible are achieved progress due to the ease use of wearable devices. Wearable technology provides the healthy conditions to the workers in un-hygienic conditions. 23 The wearable computer will offer situational awareness to the infantry soldier that will help separate friend from foe(enemies). Wearable computers will help soldiers to use digitally distributed orders, map, and intelligence, each soldier to communicate and to exchange video of what they see seamlessly with his comrades within a networked unit. plays major role in exercise to retrieve hostages by passing information about the location. 24 WEARABLE SKIN TATTOOS: wearable tattoo — essentially, a wearable skin which is an “thin, flexible devices that can stretch, bend and twist seamlessly with our bodies and posses capabilities of store data and deliver drugs .” A skin-like polymer material was layered with stretchable, motion and temperature sensors, resistive RAM, micro heaters and drugs to be delivered through skin. 25 The patch is about four centimeters long, two centimeters wide and 0.003 millimeters thick. One possible use case is on-the-spot delivery of medicine in response to muscle movement, such as for epilepsy or Parkinson’s disease. In Motorola’s vision, the skin tattoo can talk to larger devices like smart phones or Google Glass through Bluetooth, and, at least in the application, includes a mike and a power source it can function as a lie detector, measuring galvanic skin response. 26 AS Wearable Technology develops marketing will use consumer’s personal biometric to sell products and services. 27 Fig: virtual super markets in U.K(TESCO). ADVANTAGES: 1.It posses computing abilities as mobile phones and tablet computers such as calculation, navigation and remote picture. 2.Small in size. 3.portability. 4.Provides Clouding facility. 5.Multi Tasking. 6.Very Attentive. DISADVANTAGES: 1.Expensive. 2.Discomfort 3.Security Issues i.e; hacking problems. 28 REFERENCES: From IBM to Microsoft - A Brief History of The Smartwatch. http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/smartwatch-history-apple-iwatch-samsung-galaxy-gear503752, Accessed on 18 October 2014. 29
