Some Trends in Mobile Computing
Today:– closed applications or systems
– most information is „on board“
– simple or heavy in/out-devices (2D, textual)
Tomorrow:– connectivity
– open mobile information space (mobile internet)
– small („invisible“) in/out-devices(multimodal, VR, AR)
– new qualities: intelligent, situation-aware environments & applications

Qualities of Future Mobile Systems
Objects & environments become (pro-)active Increasing mobile connectivity
(people, devices, objects, information) Location of things and persons becomes „fuzzy“ Realities are mixing up (VR, AR, MR)
In future mobile environments communication will have a new quality

Effects and Needs
Interaction– with information (and objects)
– with people
– with „situation“ / „context“
– spontaneous groups
– group interaction - „Beyond Chat Rooms“
– group / collective consciousness
Based on Situation Awareness – navigating the mobile information space
– mobile information retrieval, filtering & visualization
– sensing the situation (physical, human, task-related)

Chances
Immerse people much more than todayWHERE THEY ARE (mental and spatial)– for new artistic expression
– edutainment / education
by– mobility
– situation-awareness
– group-support
– mobile (AR/VR) visualization
