Ubiquitous Computing - 01Concept

Ubiquitous computing
(pervasive computing) is a post-desktop model of human-computer interaction in
which information processing has been thoroughly integrated into everyday
objects and activities.
The
idea that almost any device, from clothing to tools to appliances to cars to
homes to the human body to your coffee mug, can be embedded with chips to
connect the device to an infinite network of other devices.
This
concept was proposed by Mark Weiser in 1988. He hoped to create a world in
which people iterated with used computers without thinking about them.
Ultimately, computers would “vanish into the background,” weaving”themselves
into the fabric of everyday life until they are indistinguishable from it.”
My original concept towards this topic is:
If computers are everywhere, everything may become computer controlled. So they can be turned on and turned off. When all these physical objects are transformed into digital form, our world is blank.
