Is my ageing Mum or Dad OK today?, with over 10m people over 65 in the UK more familiesare asking this each day. Pressure is increasing on them to provide care for ageing relativesbut hectic lives & distance is not always conducive to that.The ‘3rings Smart Plug’ is a method to connect, unconnected elderly relatives to their Internetenabled families to introduce Distributed Family Care (DFC).Power usage indicates activity, making tea or watching TV provides a valid signal that ‘Mumis OK’, unusual activity can indicate areas that may need investigation. By monitoring‘activity’ or ‘lack of it’, events can be communicated to the families to make them aware oftheir elderly relatives status, regardless of distance.The ‘3rings Smart Plug’ Project has 3 elements:- A ‘Smart Plug’ that allows a domestic appliance such as a kettle/TV to be plugged in.When the domestic appliance is turned on/off the plug ‘signals’ the 3rings ecosystem via abuilt in GSM circuit.- A cloud based software ecosystem - an event monitoring & rules based service,communicating activity/lack of activity to defined family & friends using Internet & telecomsprotocols i.e. push notifications, web, email, SMS & Calls.-‘Pattern of Life’ (PAL) tracking, an Ambient Intelligence system that provides a 24/7 earlywarning system informing families of possible unusual patterns which may indicate adversesituations.The key to acceptance is to introduce technology in a way familiar to the ageing relativesremoving the ‘fear’ of technology and not creating a ‘badge of infirmity’ whilstsimultaneously providing an ecosystem to communicate to their Internet enabled families. NoInternet is needed at the ageing relatives.Following a successful ‘Proof of Market’, the intention is to take the opportunity to the nextstage to create & evaluate a ‘Proof of Concept’ roadmap to bring to market a product designedto enhance the lives of the ageing population & their families.

我年迈的妈妈或爸爸今天还好吗？，英国有超过 1000 万 65 岁以上的人，每天都有更多的家庭在问这个问题。他们为年老的亲属提供护理的压力越来越大，但忙碌的生活和距离并不总是有利于这一点。“3rings 智能插头”是一种将未连接的老年亲属与其可上网的家庭连接起来的方法，以引入分布式家庭护理 (DFC)。用电量表明活动，泡茶或看电视提供了有效的信号，表明“Mumis OK”，异常活动可以指示可能需要调查的区域。通过监控“活动”或“缺乏活动”，事件可以传达给家庭，让他们了解年长亲属的状况，无论距离如何。“3rings 智能插头”项目有 3 个要素：- 允许插入水壶/电视等家用电器的“智能插头”。当家用电器打开/关闭时，插头通过内置 GSM 电路向 3rings 生态系统发出“信号”。- 云 基于软件生态系统的事件监控和基于规则的服务，使用互联网和电信协议（即推送通知、网络、电子邮件、短信和电话）与定义的家人和朋友进行通信活动/缺乏活动。“生活模式”（PAL）跟踪，一种环境智能系统，提供 24/7 预警系统，通知家庭可能表明不利情况的异常模式。接受的关键是在 对于年迈的亲戚来说，这种方式很熟悉，消除了对技术的“恐惧”，不会制造“虚弱的徽章”，同时提供一个生态系统，与支持互联网的家人进行交流。年老的亲戚不需要互联网。在成功的“市场证明”之后，我们的目的是利用这个机会进入下一阶段，创建和评估“概念证明”路线图，将旨在改善老年人及其家庭生活的产品推向市场。
