Preface
We have now entered an era where technology is being embedded transparently and seamlessly within our surrounding environments. This is being driven by decreasing hardware costs, increased functionality and battery life along with improved levels of pervasiveness. With such a technology rich paradigm we are now witnessing for the first time intelligent environments with the ability to provide support within our homes, the community and in the workplace. The knock-on effect has an impact on both improved living experiences within the environment along with increased levels of independence. At a general level we can decompose the construct of an intelligent environment into three main components. In the first instance we have the core sensing technology which has the ability to record the interactions with the environmen
