The Centre for Usable Home Technology also does some fascinating development that engenders pervasive systems. For example, one project was to develop a digital sign to help elderly people immediately see which stove hotplate they had turned on because even with diagrams and led lights on the diagram by the light, the project found that elderly people who find themselves in a strange new place and confronted with many new challenges outside their comfort zone can genuinely become very confused about which knob corresponds to which hotplate and mistakes can lead to kitchen and even house fires.
Doug has designed a device to be worn on the wrist of the rider that provides unobtrusive feedback to the rider about the position of the hands and wrists and also captures data for later retrieval. Doug has trialled this device with many equestrian riders and developed several prototypes of his design. One way of evangelising the new pervasive environment in the business world is to build a demonstrator–a space where examples of new technology that still have ‘toy’ like properties in that a real business need has not yet been made can be installed to scale and can be viewed working.
The virtual work that Right Hemisphere does integrates back into real world objects such as televisions and even electronic docu- xxxviii ments where virtual software can allow the user to use a mouse to turn an image of an object around as though it were three dimensional. Ubiquitous computing development is constrained by what the hardware developers know will sell. Nokia released the first one in 2004. Unfortunately, at that time the infrastructure to allow customers to use the technology was not present and so RFID embedded phones did not go past the first release.
