David Rose discusses 'enchanted objects', which are everyday items enhanced with technology to function smartly, connecting them to magical elements found in fairy tales. These objects maintain a familiar appearance while incorporating features such as connectivity and embedded intelligence, making them responsive to user needs. Examples include smart lamps that adjust lighting based on preferences and smart umbrellas that notify users of weather changes.

- 2. Enchanted Objects David Rose, a technologist, talks about "enchanted objects"—everyday items that are made smart through technology. He connects these modern smart devices to magical items we see in fairy tales, like a magic mirror or a genie’s lamp. He categorizes these objects based on what they do, like how magical items work in stories.

Enchanted Objects • In story: for Effortless Mobility invented flying carpets, and even teleportation. • In reality: Through technology, we have invented cars and railways, bicycles, and aeroplanes. • In story : enchanted paintbrushes and magic flutes. • In reality: from charcoal to paint to computer graphics, or from drums to violins and electronic Synthesizer. So, technology has always been associated with magic. Arthur C. Clarke has claimed that “any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic,”
- 4. Enchanted Objects Enchanted objects refer to everyday objects that have been augmented with technology to become "smart" or interactive. The term "enchanted" suggests that these objects retain their familiar, everyday appearance but are enhanced with capabilities that make them more functional or responsive to user needs. Examples of Enchanted Objects in IoT: • Connected Lamps: Lamps that adjust lighting based on the time of day, user preference, or voice commands. • Smart Umbrellas: Umbrellas that notify users if they need to take them based on weather forecasts.
- 6. Characteristics of Enchanted objects • Familiar Form: The object looks and feels like a traditional item (e.g., a mirror, clock, or lamp) but has additional functionalities embedded within it. • Connectivity: These objects are connected to the internet or other networks, allowing them to share data, receive updates, or be controlled remotely. • Embedded Intelligence: They often have sensors, processors, or software that allow them to respond intelligently to user interactions or environmental changes. • User-Centric Design: The enhancements are designed to make the object more useful, convenient, or engaging for the user without overwhelming them with technology.
