Ambient intelligence is an emerging discipline that
brings intelligence to everyday environments and makes those environments
sensitive to mankind.
Artificial
intelligence is playing an increasingly important role in hospitality
management, primarily because of its ability to carry out traditionally human
functions at any time of the day. This potentially means that hotel can save
significant money, eliminate human error and deliver superior service. The key
features of Ambient Intelligence include:
·
Context Awareness: Artificial
intelligence technologies are designed to be context-aware, meaning they can
detect and respond to changes in the environment, user preferences, and
behavior, and provide personalized services accordingly.
·
Ubiquitous Computing: Artificial
intelligence technologies are based on ubiquitous computing, which means they
are embedded in everyday objects and environments, making them easy to access
and use.
·
Personalization: Artificial
intelligence technologies provide personalized services to users based on their
individual needs, preferences, and behavior.
·
Intelligence: Artificial
intelligence technologies are intelligent, meaning they can learn from user
interactions and data, and adapt their behavior accordingly.
