I sense, therefore I help: Towards homes that sense and support the aged and infirm

其总体目标是开发出能够使家庭成为一名智能、关怀顾问的技术。并为功能能力下降的人(如老年人)提供操作有效性。它可以在不影响正常生活方式的情况下监控和支持各种复杂的活动，使不同能力的人能够独立，同时得到家庭的照顾。这种关怀的范围从检测危险情况和提醒用户的建议系统，到在很长一段时间内(如疾病发作)检测复杂、正常活动的细微偏差。

The overall goal is to produce technologies that will enable the home to be a ?intelligent, caring advisor? and provide operational effectiveness for people with decreasing functional capacity (eg aged). It can monitor and support activities of varying complexity without compromising a normal lifestyle, enabling people of varying abilities to be independent, whilst being cared for by their homes. This caring will range from advice systems for detecting hazardous situations and alerting the user, through to detecting subtle deviations from complex, normal activities over significant periods of time (such as caused by the onset of an illness).
