To enable seamless data flow, we need solutions that already offer multiple interfaces to other providers and comply with legal requirements such as data protection — acting as bridges to accelerate the development of integrated, networked systems.
We are looking for small, innovative everyday helpers — such as automatic oven shut-off or tiltable mirrors — that qualify as home adaptations, support independent living, and ideally can be connected to other systems via an open interface.
Outpatient care is reaching its limits due to demographic change and limited resources, making it increasingly difficult to ensure support for elderly and disabled people in their own homes. A smart home solution with sensors could relieve relatives and care services, promote independent living, and provide reassurance through data-based monitoring — all while meeting GDPR requirements and remaining easy to use.
