The project objective is to enable older adults living alone to stay independent for longer in their own – not home – but SMART home. To achieve this and truly cater for the majority of older adults living alone (1 in every 3 elderly in Europe), we target informal next-of-kin caregivers to adopt and install the digital solution for their older adult, and become the effective user of the app, receiver of care alerts, etc., alongside formal caregivers. Consequently, both informal and formal caregivers play a central role in the end-user feedback and co-creation process alongside older adults and tertiary end-users such as municipalities and health insurers. The technology in use is based on commercially available smart home sensors and a voice agent that use sound-based learning algorithms to monitor for behavioural anomalies in the home of the older adult. The A4A project includes 4 end-user organisations in four different countries, which will conduct a field trial during the project and act as early adopters when the solution is commercialised.

Many older adults rely on delivered meals that they re-heat manually at home before serving – typically using a microwave oven. Unfortunately, the re-heating process can be rather challenging and it often happens that the meals get overly cooked. This leads to inedible meals and creates a high demand for external problem solving and assistance with meal preparation. To overcome this, the PREPARIO project aim to deliver an automated meal heating solution, enabling older adults to re-heat their meals safely and independently at home and additionally supplying a safety net of connected and data-driven support functions. The temperature of the meal is measured during microwave heating and used to control the heating of the meal in a fully automated way, enabling a controlled and consistent heating result. A user friendly and connected voice assistance tailored for older adults gives the microwave oven a voice, serving as acoustic feedback and can e.g., remind the user that the meal is ready.
