1. Introduction

Electronic provides devices that are ubiquitous features of our lives. We watch television and listen to the radio, connect to the rest of the world using Wi-Fi systems, adjust our home heating systems remotely, and on and on. This control over our world extends to our cars: electronic regulation of air conditioning, stability, antilock brakes, anti-skating systems, and other microprocessors that constitute new electronics control units that enable complete control over total-vehicle operations, including the engine and transmission. The next step in car evolution will be cars that drive themselves (there are already cars on the market equipped with automatic blocking of obstacles). The same goes for airplanes: nobody wants to use it, but the technology already exists to fly airplanes without a pilot, including takeoff and landing. Electronics are part of our daily lives: we have a mobile phones in our pockets and laptops in handbags. Some of us also carry an iPod® or iPhone® (which is more than just a mobile phone!) in our pockets and an iPad® in a case. You don’t have to look far before coming across someone using e-book readers in airports or on airplanes. We have fully integrated electronics into our daily lives in a manner that is totally organic. We are so comfortable with it that we sometimes aren’t even cognizant of electronic devices and consider them an extension of our own bodies. They are what we might also call personal electronics.
