Abstract

smart cities

By 2040, the Australian population is predicted to have 20% of its citizens aged 65+. The country is working now to reduce costs of associated health and aged care with a strong emphasis on developing innovative assistive technologies to support older people to stay safer and keep living at home, independent and healthy, for longer. Following a review of the literature and initiatives of Smart home technology, in 2012, Australia's leading research organisation took advantage of recent advances lifestyle technologies and sensor-network to develop novel approach to an innovative solution to support people living in their homes, called the Smarter Safer Homes (SSH) platform. The SSH platform has the capability to capture measure of functional independence and health from sensors and home health monitors to deliver data and ready interaction for self-management, engage family or carer in the support, and also social and clinical services. This paper explores the interface and translation of research and development into mainstream service delivery through a project deploying the platform in a community based setting in regional Australia.
