Sharing Memories of Smart Products and their Consumers in Instrumented Environments (Austausch digitaler Gedächtnisse von Produkten und Konsumenten in instrumentierten Umgebungen)

Summary Intelligent assistants need precise knowledge about activity sequences and the habits of their users so as to support them in an adequate manner. The following contribution addresses an approach to user support, which takes advantage of the object centred nature of many day-to-day activities. By means of application examples from the everyday, we illustrate how a combination of smart items and digital memories allows for realizing innovative support mechanisms, which take into account static knowledge about objects as well as situational observations and historical data. Here, we devote special attention to applications originating from the sharing of data gathered this way between users and systems. Zusammenfassung Intelligente Assistenten benötigen präzises Wissen über Handlungsabläufe und Gewohnheiten ihres Benutzers, um diesen in adäquater Weise unterstützen zu können. Der folgende Beitrag behandelt einen Ansatz zur Benutzerunterstützung, der sich die objektzentrierte Natur vieler Alltagshandlungen zu Nutze macht. Wir illustrieren anhand von Anwendungsbeispielen, wie durch die Kombination von Smart Items und digitalen Gedächtnissen innovative Formen der Benutzerunterstützung möglich werden, die statisches Wissen über Objekte mit dynamischen Informationen und historischen Daten kombinieren. Besondere Aufmerksamkeit widmen wir hierbei Anwendungsmöglichkeiten, die aus dem Austausch der so gewonnenen Daten zwischen Benutzern und Systemen entstehen.
