A safer and healthier old age – that is the aim of
GiraffPlus, an international project led by researchers at Örebro University,
Sweden. With a focus of developing sophisticated aids for the elderly in close
collaboration with the intended users, the project is now about to test the new
technology in real homes.
The system has already been tested in a demo apartment in
Örebro, but the next step is for researchers in Sweden, Italy and Spain to
evaluate the new technology in real homes.
