Smart Exposition Rooms: the Ambient Intelligence View

We introduce our research on smart environments, in particular research on smart meeting rooms and investigate how research approaches here can be used in the context of smart museum environments. We distinguish the identification of domain knowledge, its use in sensory perception, its use in interpretation and modeling of events and acts in smart environments and we have some observations on off-line browsing and on-line remote participation in events in smart environments. It is argued that largescale European research in the area of ambient intelligence will be an impetus to the research and development of smart galleries and museum spaces.
