The objective of GERHOME project is to develop, try out and certify technical solutions supporting the assistance services for enhancing independence of the elderly at home, by using intelligent technologies for house automations to ensure autonomy, comfort of life, security, monitoring and assistance to place of residence.
One of the main concerns of this project is to make technology “invisible”.
These services will allow:
- to reduce the risks of accidents at home (risks of falls, burns, etc) and other risks (heat wave, etc)
- to keep the bond with the members of the family, the entourage, the doctor
- to adapt the habitat in order to follow and preserve the autonomy of the growing old people
- to offer some other services such as the medical follow-up (drugs absorption, real-time monitoring, etc), the management of the urgency, and the assistance to place of residence.
More on the technical and sociological objectives of the project.
