Smart home solutions for seniors with ambient assisted living (aal)
The fact that smart home solutions make life easier has already been proven many times over. But for older people, smart technologies in the home can not only simplify independent living, but also facilitate social contact. AAL stands for a portfolio of solutions, the best known and oldest of which is the home emergency call system.
Seniors or people with physical disabilities want to live independent, supported lives. An age-appropriate, ambient assisted living (AAL) system provides the right basis for making everyday life safer and easier.
AAL for a self-determined life
Different areas of everyday life can be integrated into an age appropriate assistance system using smart home technology. In addition to controlling appliances, lights, blinds and locking systems, linking them to entertainment media or phones also offers added value.
You do not feel tech-savvy enough to deal with the new technology? No problem, because with a little practice and guidance, anyone can control an assistance system themselves, and voice assistants in particular are a great help here.
There are already numerous products for various areas of life that can be integrated into an AAL:
- Avoid stress with smart doorbells
- Getting into the house without a key
- Telephoning made easy
- Help from the family with smart care
- Smart fire protection for cooking
- Help in the event of a fall through intelligent floor networking
- Accessible bathroom with smart technology
- Support from smart kitchen appliances
Smart products for seniors can give back a large part of quality of life and give not only the elderly, but also relatives a feeling of security. Because they can be connected to the AAL via an app and immediately receive a message in an emergency.
