| Abstract | Context-Awareness plays a major role for the success of mobile applications; this is true for context-aware (software) services as well as for the used devices themselves. Therefore, within this paper, we want to discuss the usage of context-specific mobile devices as target platforms for new mobile applications. Nowadays, the primary application platforms taken into considerations for new mobile applications are mobile phones, personal digital assistants (PDAs), and tablet PCs. Because of this, the specialties of the device itself—its characteristics, features, and constraints—are lost. This is also the case for the majority of known mobile guide systems. A selection of mobile devices, being possible platforms for future mobile applications and a number of case studies of those alternative devices as mobile guides will be given. |
