Description:

PHArA-ON project will maximise the use of advanced services, devices, and tools from IoT, artificial intelligence and robotics to cloud computing, smart wearables, Big Data and intelligent analytics. Its aim is to create a set of integrated and highly customisable interoperable open platforms. Platform interoperability will be implemented within Pharaon ecosystems and platforms, which will be validated in two stages: pre-validation and large-scale pilots (LSPs) conducted at pilot sites in Italy, Netherlands, Portugal, Slovenia and Spain (Murcia and Andalusia).

Overview: 
Pharaon's creates a set of integrated and highly customizable interoperable open platforms with advanced services, devices, and tools including IoT, artificial intelligence, robotics, cloud computing, smart wearables, big data, and intelligent analytics.Platform interoperability is ensured within Pharaon ecosystems and platforms, as well as other standardised platforms within health and other domains (energy, transport and smart cities). Pharaon identified relevant standards and contributed to them with the help of the two standardisation bodies of the consortium. Data privacy, cybersecurity, interoperability and openness will be key design principles.

Objectives: 
- IDENTIFY the current state of interoperability between widely used platforms and partner solutions and solutions from third parties involved.- IMPLEMENT personalised analytics that provide older adults and their caregivers with the most pertinent physical and mental health as well as wellbeing information.- DEMONSTRATE the feasibility of integrating the PHArA-ON platforms with existing systems related to intelligent transport and mobility, energy optimisation, and smart cities.- ENSURE user-friendly human-computer interaction modes that address various capacity limitations and provide rapid access to useable information.- VALIDATE the PHArA-ON platforms at an early stage providing feedback to the function and usefulness of these platforms and their integrated technologies.- INVOLVE new stakeholders and their technologies, products, or services in the different ecosystems through the launch of open calls.- PILOT the platforms in 6 different sites from 5 countries, with a scope of thousands of users including older adults, formal, and non-formal caregivers.- PROVE the efficacy of the platforms by applying standards and proven metrics, which will allow objective assessment of the value of the PHArA-ON platform.

Initiatives: 
Two-stage validation through small and large-scale pilots in multiple regions. It focus interoperability and Cybersecurity, leveraging mature and state-of-the-art technology/platforms.
Shortcomings: 
The project seems too ambitious and covering many perspectives which can be a relevant risk.
Relevance: 
5
Relevance Description: 
The project is validating and integrating multiple solutions to provide care.
Quality: 
5
Opinion: 
The initiative is well-communicated and involves relevant large-scale pilots in a user-centric approach. It relies on stakeholders from different points of healthcare value chain, including standardisation.
