Abstract
The challenge is better connect remote people than with a mobile phone employing context aware augmented reality. Web 2.0 technologies have added to people's ability to stay connect with colleagues, friends and family. This is due to the ease of use, pervasive nature of workstation PC's, and the underlying need for the technologies. These forms of technologies do not scale down to smart phone form factors. New technologies need to be investigated to overcome these issues, but in addition take advance of the mobile nature of people. Sensing technologies can provide a vast amount of context data for systems to use. Where, when, how long, and particular tasks can be incorporated into the systems. Because people self form their social networks, what would be considered invasive technologies may be employed.What are these new sensors, and what new infrastructure is required? Augmented reality can provide in-situ information to the user in conjunction with context aware sensing to bring together people, time, place, and activities.
