gAALaxy
The 2PCS was used in the research project.
The motivation behind gAALaxy idea is to support older adults in staying autonomous and socially active in their familiar environment and in introducing them to AAL-technologies while using an ambient (integration of the system into life and living environment) and activating (inclusion and participation of the end-user into social environment) approach.
The goal of the gAALaxy development is to bundle existing, innovative AAL solutions with professional home automation systems in order to deliver a unique and unified end-user experience. The core of the gAALaxy vision is the creation of a holistic residential gateway revolving around ambient home automation technologies enhanced with activating and engaging AAL technologies which offers access to call centre technologies or relevant tele and social services.
The unique holistic approach of gAALaxy is the merging of stand-alone solutions that support elderly people in their core areas of life by combining home automation with AAL products and services on an adaptable and modular “AAL ready Smart Home” system that fits into the changing life phases of the end-user.
