Conclusion

Smart Spaces is a very rich research topic, filled with interesting problems. Our particular focus on the office environment has presented us with an inviting set of challenges to solve. We believe we have two exciting solutions: a method for wireless power delivery and a mechanism for key management in ad-hoc environments. Although we continue to be challenged by peripheral and application dependencies, we have identified problems in the obvious solutions and look forward to working on these problems more in the future.
