Key Messages Personalised and persistent relationships with
technology are becoming embedded into our way of life across all generations
Physical spaces are important hubs for building social, economic and knowledge networks
Personalised, persistent experiences will be demanded from physical spaces
SHASPA supports sustainable development by re-connecting citizens to the environment
SHASPAIntelligent Shared Spaces
“Bringing the best attributes of virtual world technologies
to physical spaces”
Intelligence in Shared Spaces
“Passive, broadcast, unidirectional”
“Active, participatory, bidirectional”
The Most Disruptive TechnologyDevelopments in History
The Agent for Change is Us
Our Needs and Expectations
What we demand from technology is
Choice
Flexibility
Control
Personalisation
Experience
Discovery
Variety
Engagement
Cost
Hassle
Bureaucracy
We are driving technology to provide
More control over our lives, our world andour relationships
and we are preparedto pay for it !!

Electronic Games, Virtual World and Social Networking Technologies are shaping our
relationship with the world around us
The boundaries between what is real and virtual are blurring

Personalised Games Spaces
Every user has a personal and persistent experience
Virtual World Spaces
Shaping a relationship with a “Space”
Social Network Spaces
E-Commerce Spaces
Mobile Spaces
The mobile is becoming an alter-ego containing our
digital lives
Technology & Relationships Treats me as an individual Easy to get on with Remembers everything about me Every day brings new discoveries Helps me to understand Encourages & challenge me Helps me to express myself
My Computer Loves Me !!
Society & Embedded Technologies
“Digital natives are born into a world where technology is embedded into their lives and is
changing their physical and mental capabilities”
Global Reach
“Everyone with access to technology can potentially shape the lives of millions of people”
Key Message 1
“Personalised and persistent relationships with technology are
becoming embedded into our way of life across all generations”
Physical Spaces and Relationships
Physical Spaces and Relationships
“Ancient philosophies like Feng Shui connected us to our physical environment”
Physical Spaces and Relationships
“Physical spaces shape our lives and act as hubs to our social and economic networks”
Shared Physical Spaces
“Physical spaces are lagging behind virtual spaces in their ability to build personal
relationships and connect us to our environment”
“Passive” “Active”
Key Message 2
“Physical Spaces (and our experience of them) are important hubs for building
social, economic and knowledge networks, yet they lack the intelligence
for personalised, persistent relationships”
Embedding personalised, persistent experiences into physical shared spaces
The Challenge
“How do I develop a personalised and persistent relationship with my physical environment ?”
Personalisation & Persistence in the Physical Space

The Components Sensors Artificial Intelligence Digital Identity, Tagging and Profiling Ambient Interfaces Data Visualisation Communication Controllers
Simple Example
“RFID Tagging is used at Alton Towers Theme Park to create personalised movie of your day”
Simple Example
“RFID Tagging is used at a Bristol Museum to enable children to make their own animated movie”
Key Message 3
“Personalised, persistent experiences will be demanded
from physical spaces”
Integrating Physical and Virtual Places
The Components
Embedded Sensors
Sensors & 3D visualisations help us understand and manage our environment
Visualisation
Better data access, analysis and visualisation reduces energy consumption by 10% +
Mobile Tagging & Communication
Mobile devices know who you are and where you are – they can be
the gateway to a personalised
relationship with physical spaces
Geotagging
Geotagging allows us to contribute to knowledge about our world and shape the future
Ambient Interfaces
New interface technologies bring better access, usability and control
Social Networking
Social networking enables us to collaborate and compete with our neighbours on energy efficiency
Artificial Intelligence
Embedded smart agents can develop a
personalised and persistent relationship
between you and a virtual or physical
space.
Application Areas
Energy Management
Education
Health
Hotels
Retail
Culture & Heritage
SHASPA & Feng Shui
“SHASPA is also a philosophical concept based on collaboration & harmony with physical
spaces”
Key Message 4
“Intelligent Shared Spaces using a blended cocktail of technologies and applications can
help to re-connect us to our physical environment and contribute to sustainable
development”
SHASPA and Construction
SHASPA supports sustainable development through the innovative integration of
emerging technologies into construction and regeneration projects
Key Benefits
