Abstract:
This paper discusses the concepts and the supporting infrastructure developed within the extrovert-Gadgets research project. This project explores concepts and technologies that aim to enable end-users to realize, modify and personalise Ubiquitous Computing applications. The eGadgets technology is at a proof of concept stage and the demonstration presented shows the feasibility of augmenting physical objects with a digital ‘self’ and for defining the combined behaviour of a few such augmented artefacts through a purpose made editor.
