Itseemsthattechnologycouldbechangingtheplaceswherewelive.AprojectconductedbyJohannSinu,aseniorlecturerattheUniversityofHertfordshire’sSchoolofEngineeringandTechnology,hasbuiltontheuniversity’sInterHomeprojectaimedtocreateahomethatsupervisespeoplelivingathomewhoareweakorelderly.

“We’vedevelopedawristbandtypeofdevice（装置）,”saidJohannSiau,“whichallowsustomonitortheconditionofanelderlyperson,orwhoeveriswearingthedevice.Itallowsustocollectdataofapersontoseeifthepersonhasfallenorisawayfromwheretheyaresupposedtobe.ItconnectsanelderlypersonwithanassistedlivingtypeofdevicewiththeInterHome.”Theassistedlivingprojectispartoftheuniversity’swiderInterHomeproject,which is the development of a smart house.The house stores the 

usage patterns of the person living there and can adapt to make it use as little energy as possible.Connecting the two together and building the service element（元素）allow us to introduce the assisted-living 

idea to care for theelderly.It’sveryimportantthatthesetechnologiesarethere to help and support 

rather than to replace any of the existing services.

The InterHome is not just a prototype or a vehicle for research,it’s a study tool to help students from 

different scientific backgrounds learn about and develop technology.The InterHome combines the latest broadband technology, mobile data and communication.Researchers and students make sure all the technology workstogether.Students getexperience by developing new hardware and software themselves.It requires 

a variety of skills from students-electronic engineers,computer students,design students and so on. “The present plan we are working on is a smart home project inWatford with some commercial companies,” said 

Johann Siau.“We are looking at how a smarter home can provide extra value services.”
