DESCRIPTION:*Abstract:* Ever since Mark Weiser and Philips connected syste
 ms intelligence with cognitive intelligence and formed the basis for the d
 evelopment of the ‘internet of things’\, much has been written about t
 he coming of ambient intelligence (AmI).  Twenty five years on from Weiser
 \, the physical basis for AmI is being realised due to the emergence of ma
 terials which have the capability to be programmed for intelligent use and
  are capable of being product design friendly.  Importantly\, this outcome
  allows the acceleration of new product and system technologies using conf
 ormable transparent electronics and photonics i.e. from materials to physi
 cal AmI and is the critical driver for the future of organic CMOS and the 
 printed electronics semiconductor industry.\nAt the Royal College of Art\,
  we think about AmI in terms of creative design through the concept of dot
 s\, lines\, surfaces and 3D structures to enable and enhance ambient assis
 ted living in applications from Health & Wellbeing to wearable technology 
 and responsive lifestyles to portable power & printable light.\n
