Ubiquitous Intelligence promises to deliver a new world where devices embedded in the environment are endowed with different levels of intelligence. Smart systems, which combine sensors, actuators, networks, and other electronic devices are intended to enhance people's quality of life due to the way they augment and integrate with everyday settings at work, at home, and diverse locations and situations in-between. In developing and deploying these new technologies, it is important to not lose sight of the people and settings that they are being designed for. As UIC devices move from research prototypes to commercial products, away from the laboratory into people's homes and workplaces, it will become increasingly important to employ people centred methods in their design. The workshop will be a forum for participants to share their experiences with the development of UI systems and underlying technologies, where there has been a focus on their design for people in specific use contexts and scenarios, and where the design methods used have been a focus of the research.
