The MIcrosystems platform for MObile Services and Applications (MIMOSA) is an European Integrated Project in the Information Society Technology (IST) priority. The goal of MIMOSA is to make Ambient Intelligence (AmI) a reality by developing a mobile-phone centric open technology platform. In MIMOSA vision, personal mobile devices act as the principal gateway to AmI. The technology platform consists of the present telecommunication technology platform augmented with the following new key building blocks: wireless sensors exploiting the RFID technology, highly integrated readers/writers for RFID tags and sensors, MEMS-based RF components and modules, low-power short-range radios, advanced integration technology and novel MEMS sensors for context sensitivity and intuitive user interfaces. In MIMOSA vision, the user feels and really is in control of AmI. AmI applications help people in their everyday life: the applications are useful, usable, reliable, and ethical issues have been taken into account in the design.
