    1. ISRC Future Technology Briefing: Human-Centric Computing

    2. Two Views of The Future Pervasive computing Objective: to get the end user experience right Focus on designing devices that are easier for users to find relevant information. Carnegie Mellon and IBM Human-centric computing Objective: to create an entire solution so that the human is always connected, as opposed to the device. Focus on embedding devices in objects that humans interact with on a daily basis Project Oxygen at MIT

    3. Three Elements of Human-Centric Computing Device constantly with you Contains a camera, a video screen, the equivalent of a cell phone/beeper, a headphone jack, a GPS, and a pointing device. Embedded devices in the walls, ceilings, car trunks, or any place where a device can be installed. The entire network will be custom-configured to what you want and will be controlled by your voice

    4. Projected Benefits Individuals: Users will not be as frustrated Computer becomes a slave Pertinent and accurate information Organizations: Accessible employees Dissolution of boundary between work and home Daily interaction with customers Financial reduction in training and education of users

    5. Projected Benefits Humanitarian: Easier global collaboration Removal of social boundaries Less judgmental and prejudice society Increased opportunities for third world countries

    6. Projected Risks Connectivity overload Computers watch our “intimate” moments Lack of privacy Exploitation of third world citizens Reliance upon voice as only means of input

    7. A Timeline of Implementation First pervasive devices are already beginning to infiltrate the market Wearable computer Microsoft’s Project Hailstorm Human-centric computing is beyond the near term Project Oxygen prototype will be available in 2002 Full version available in a decade Beyond human-centric computing Artificial intelligence and machine learning increase Biological computing

    8. How to Get Started Focusing on having systems serve people Look at today's speech systems Look at automation Look at how people work Look at customization Look at what you are doing in your daily actions Begin slowly
