Building Smarter Apps

A new breed of mobile applications is coming. These new apps will not only "sense" the world around you, using the smartphone's sensors like the compass, GPS, and accelerometer - they'll also be able to combine that data with a history of your actions to intelligently determine your likes, interests and favorites. This understanding of the world, or "ambient discovery" if you will, could then be piped into any app to make it smarter, whether it's a social app for finding friends, a Siri-like personal assistant, a fitness app, a mobile game, or anything else. This, at least, is the promise from the Palo Alto-based startup, Alohar Mobile, which recently introduced new SDKs for mobile app developers interested in experimenting with the possibilities of smarter apps.
