e-HOME - Context Aware and Distributed Embedded System for Assistive Home Technology

01.03.2008 - 30.09.2010
Research funding project
The e-HOME project will carry out R&D activities for an assistive home system which can prolong the time of independent living for elderly people. It consists of an intelligent and adaptive network of wireless sensors for activity monitoring which is connected to a context-aware central embedded system. By learning and adapting to the behaviour patterns of the users it will allow to detect abnormal or dangerous situations and emerging medical conditions.
