The apparatus is configured of a sensor platform, a context-aware agent and a service provider. The sensor platform collects data of real world and transmits the collected data to the context-aware agent. The context-aware agent integrates the data of real world from the sensor platform, and stores and manages context information according to the integrated data. The service provider automatically controls objects to perform necessary operations to provide a predetermined intelligent services according to the context information received from the context-aware agent.
