Smart homes, home automation and ambient-assisted living are terms
used to describe technological systems that enrich our living
environment and provide means to support care, facilitate
well-being and improve comfort. This handbook provides an overview
of the domain from the perspective of health care and technology.
In Part 1, we set out to describe the demographic changes in
society, including ageing and diseases and impairments which lead
to the needs for technological solutions. In Part 2, we describe
the technological solutions, ranging from sensor-based networks,
components, to communication protocols that are used in the design
of smart homes. We also deal will biomedical features which can be
measured and services that can be delivered to end-users as well as
the use of social robots. In Part 3, we present best practices in
the field. These best practices mainly focus on existing projects
in Europe, the USA and Asia, in which people receive help through
dedicated technological solutions being part of the continuum of
the home environment and care.
