Abstract

With the advent of the Internet of Everything, people can easily interact with their environments immersively. The idea of pervasive computing is becoming a reality, but due to the inconvenience of carrying silicon-based entities and a lack of fine-grained sensing capabilities for human-computer interaction, it is difficult to ensure comfort, aesthetics, and privacy in smart spaces. Motivated by the rapid developments in intelligent-fabric technology in the post-Moore era, we propose a novel computing approach that creates a paradigm shift driven by intelligent-fabric computing and advocate a new concept of non-chip sensing in living spaces. We discuss the core notion and benefits of intelligent-fabric computing, including its implementation, challenges, and future research opportunities.
