Scenario(s)
|
The user is working at home (SP3-33 - SP3-35) and uses the environmental control (SP2-57). Then he/she decides to undertake some exercising of the brain (SP2-29 - SP2-30). Fall detection is on at all time since he/she has had a stroke in the past (SP2-25 - SP2-28).
|
-
System output
|
Connection with the user’s company IT infrastructure and ability to perform a number of IT related tasks in the same way as his/her office. Information to the user for the status of a specific home appliance (heater temperature) and possibility to alter it.
Presentation to the user a set of exercises for brain training and analysis of the results.
Measurement of user’s actions that could cause the falling (knee extension strength, sit-to-stand performance, changes in the user’s walking patterns and speed, etc.) and warning in case of anomaly.

11a. User Interaction devices & restrictions
|
Working: PC mainly (and PDA).
Test and training: PC, TV (touch screens), PDA and smartphones may be restricting
Edutainment module: PC, TV, PDA, Smartphone, and a stand-alone electronic gadget
|
11b. Sensor devices & restrictions

Services
|
Success parameters
|
Brain and Skills trainer
|
a) definition of the system´s reiterative adaptation loops based on user input;
b) results of test/training sessions
and
c) user profiles
|
Activity coach
|
Effectiveness in preventing a risk situation;
Reliable assessment of a “dangerous” situation and prompt call for help.
Increased peace of mind both for the elderly and for the family.
|
Environmental Control
|
Efficiency of monitoring/ detecting the status of home devices and control them automatically when there are safety issues present.
User friendliness of the application.
Interoperability in terms of connected devices.
|
Smart workplaces
|
Accuracy of the tasks provided in the workflows and appropriate timing

Interaction level
|
Step 1 – the user wants to be connected to the IT infrastructure of his/her company by pushing a specific button (real or virtual hw/sw embedded) of his/her working device (Home PC, Laptop, PDA, etc)
Step 2 – the “OASIS - Connecting Bridge” taking into consideration all different parameters such as working device, company IT infrastructure security settings, working environment and telecom network existing in the environment, etc., connects the user working device with his/her company IT infrastructure end emulates his/her working environment in the office
Step 3: the user is able to perform a number of IT related tasks in the same way as his/her office.
Step 4: the user wants to check the temperature of the heater through the environmental control unit
Step 5: the system informs the user on the temperature
Step 6: the user changes the temperature level
Step 7: The user carries out a cognitive exercise aiming to support his/her daily activities (e.g. food recipe memorizing and cooking steps).
Step 8: the system stores the personal cognitive profile (if/when user accepted) and calibrates the user’s profile for individualized future training sessions with adjustable and scalable complexity and difficulty; it informs the user on the outcome (scores, comparisons with earlier sessions and recommendations on future steps).
General: throughout the above actions, the system detects risky situations for falling and warns the elderly and calls for help in case of emergency.
|
-
Personalisation/ adaptation level
|
√Yes:
√static parameters: any static disability(adapted UI);user psychological profile (affecting the feedback approach of the system); company IT infrastructure security settings
√semi-dynamic parameters: working device and telecom network, etc. Normal walking patterns of the user, user’s habits, etc. The level of risk is defined on the basis of the deviation of the measured parameters against a “normal” set of values related to the specific user. User psychological profile (affecting the feedback approach of the system);
√environmental parameters/context of use: Prevention approach could be impacted by the context and the environment. “Controlled environments” (e.g. home) will ensure a more effective action of the system.
|
-
Quality of service indicators
|
Unobtrusiveness and acceptance by the elderly; Reduction in the number of falls; Reduced false alarms ; Communicate with emergency centre <1 min.
Environmental control reliability demands: 100% reliability (i.e. the system performs the commands of the user).
Environmental control efficiency: 100% efficiency (the status of the home devices is changed accordingly).
Brain training: Reliability and validity of testing procedures and outcomes; Effectiveness and efficiency of training procedures
