SMILE: Providing digitalised prevention and prediction support for ageing people in smart living environments

Category: Projects

International project that will create Smart Inclusive Living Environments (SLE) enabling aging in place. They will support independent and active aging living through a participatory SLE ecosystem model; the 'Digital Care Facilitator', an AI-based system; a conversational agent as an everyday intermediary enhancing social participation; personal mHealth apps, and eHealth monitors and devices. The project will demonstrate that SMILE works for a very heterogeneous group: older people with severe dementia, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and care transitions during post-surgery recovery.

SOL-TECH - Human-centered solar smart technology design for healthy aging

Category: Projects

The project aims to co-design and develop solar-powered smart tags and sensors that can be integrated into home environments to prevent and monitor falling, hence supporting the independent living of the aging population and improving the quality of life, while powered by clean energy harnessed from indoor light.

Speech analysis for Hungtington or Parkinson (to detect possible signs of early impairment)

Category: Other

A model for digital neural impairment screening and self-assessment, which can evaluate cognitive and motor deficits for patients with symptoms of central nervous system (CNS) disorders, such as mild cognitive impairment (MCI), Parkinson's disease (PD), Huntington's disease (HD), or dementia. The data was collected with an Android mobile application that can track cognitive, hand tremor, energy expenditure, and speech features of subjects. We extracted 238 features as the model inputs using 16 tasks, 12 of them were based on a self-administered cognitive testing (SAGE) methodology and others used finger tapping and voice features acquired from the sensors of a smart mobile device (smartphone or tablet)

TACTILE

Category: User Experience

The focus of TACTILE is to develop a mixed reality (MR) software for elderly people for playing board games and doing physical training exercises on MR glasses. The MR environment will support the high usability of the overall system by combining a common board game setup (including real game pieces) with virtual game pieces. The system recognizes the real game parts on the gaming board of player A and sends this information to player B where they are represented by virtual game parts. This process is bidirectional and so the two spatially separated players can play one single game together.

Ten questions concerning age-friendly cities and communities and the built environment

Category: User Experience

Journal paper: Abstract: The development of ?ge-friendly cities' has become a major area of work in the field of ageing and the built environment. This movement is driven by the observation that cities are home to an ever-increasing ageing population. Over the past decade, a multitude of age-friendly initiatives have been developed with the aim of making physical and social environments more favourable for older people's well-being, health and ability to live in the community. This article explores ten key questions associated with the age-friendly cities and communities' movement, with a particular focus on the built environment. It provides an overview of the history of the age-friendly cities' movement and the underlying models, the aspects of the built environment that are relevant for age-friendly cities, the ways age-friendliness can be evaluated, and the interactions between age-friendly cities initiatives and other strategic agendas such as smart cities. The paper concludes by discussing future perspectives and possible directions for further development of the age-friendly movement.

The deployment of the Pharaon Large Scale pilots, assess, among other parameters, the usability level of the devices by the main users: Older Adults, Caregivers and Professionals.

Category: User Experience

The overall objective of the PHArA-ON project is to provide support for Europe's ageing population by integrating digital services, devices, and tools into open platforms that can be readily deployed while maintaining the dignity of older adults and enhancing their independence, safety, and capabilities. The project will utilise a range of digital tools including connected devices (e.g., the Internet of Things, IoT), artificial intelligence, robotics, cloud and edge computing, smart wearables, big data, and intelligent analytics that will be integrated to provide personalised and optimised health care delivery.
