"Ambient intelligence" refers to pervasive computing environments that are sensitive and responsive to the presence and movements of people. This notion was proposed in 1998 by Philips, Netherlands, and first appeared in the literature in 1999. Ambient Intelligence opens up a world of very rich experiences. The interactions of people-with-people, or people-with-machines, using electronic devices will change as context-awareness, natural interfaces, and ubiquitous availability of information are realized. Distributed multimedia applications and their processing on embedded static and mobile platforms will play a major role in the development of ambient-intelligent environments. The proposed research program will focus on the design, implementation, testing and evaluation of multimedia technologies and applications running in ambient intelligence environments. Multimedia applications will be composed of combinations of media such as audio, video, text, graphics, animation, Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality and Haptics, where the media have space, time and/or semantic relationships. Natural interfaces, such as human gestures and body movements will be in the core of this research. User-centric computing, employing the user profile, preferences and context will be main points of interest. Multimedia content adaptation and delivery, according to user and situation context will be effected, using standards such as MPEG-7 (for indexing), MPEG-21 (for adaptation and stream control) and MPEG-4 (for content coding, transport and rendering). The role of intelligent algorithms in this research is apparent because it is the key enabling factor for realizing natural interaction. The applications of this research are plentiful, ranging from the smart-home and smart-workplace of the future, to entertainment, digital media in health applications and digital media in the arts.

“环境智能”指的是对人的存在和移动敏感并做出反应的普适计算环境。这一概念是由荷兰飞利浦于1998年提出的，并于1999年首次出现在文献中。环境智能开启了一个体验非常丰富的世界。随着环境感知、自然接口和信息无处不在的可获得性的实现，使用电子设备的人与人或人与机器的交互将发生变化。分布式多媒体应用及其在嵌入式静态和移动平台上的处理将在环境智能环境的发展中发挥重要作用。拟议的研究计划将侧重于在环境智能环境中运行的多媒体技术和应用程序的设计、实施、测试和评估。多媒体应用将由诸如音频、视频、文本、图形、动画、虚拟现实、增强现实和触觉等媒体的组合组成，其中媒体具有空间、时间和/或语义关系。自然的界面，如人类的手势和身体动作，将是这项研究的核心。以用户为中心的计算，利用用户简档、偏好和上下文将是主要的兴趣点。将使用诸如MPEG-7(用于索引)、mpeg-21(用于改编和流控制)和mpeg-4(用于内容编码、传输和呈现)的标准来实现根据用户和情况上下文的多媒体内容改编和递送。智能算法在这项研究中的作用是显而易见的，因为它是实现自然交互的关键使能因素。这项研究的应用范围很广，从未来的智能家居和智能工作场所，到娱乐、健康应用中的数字媒体和艺术中的数字媒体。
