Abstract

The present paper deals with the implementation of Open Innovation through ensuring open access to semantically enriched information about virtual and physical objects. This so-called object information integrates publicly available information and information gathered by smart objects or sensor networks. The design of an infrastructure architecture referred to as Open Object Information Infrastructure (OOII) is presented, which can be used as a publicly accessible information source. We assert that this consistently open approach favors a remarkably strong climate of innovation, fostering the development of new and innovative ambient applications and services.
