This research explores current strategies and approaches directed to integrate innovative
technologies in the home modification process to support independent living and ageing in …

The share of the aged population over and above 65 years increased from 6% in 1990 to
9% in 2019. The percentage of the aged population might increase further to 16% by 2050 …

Robotic Building implies both physically built robotic environments and robotically supported
building processes. Physically built robotic environments consist of reconfigurable, adaptive …

The present paper details the development of a cost-effective Fall-Detection and-
Intervention System (FaDIS) based on Wireless Sensor Network technologies. The system is …

In this research a graph-based methodology has been developed to support modular
building design. A graph-theoretic algorithm is used to decompose the design into modules …

Purpose: Demographic change has resulted in an increase of elderly people, while at the
same time the number of active working people is falling. In the future, there will be less …

This thesis presents an alternative approach to intelligence in the built-environment,
departing from the two established yet divergent branches in the discourse: the Technical …

Physical and cognitive decline associated with the natural aging process require the
implementation of integrated and ambulant assistive technologies for the elderly to sustain …

Research trends in Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) involve intelligent robotic environments.
These environments use both integrated sensors/actuators on the one hand and ambulant …

In this chapter, authors focus on mechatronic solutions for low-cost control devices for the
homecare of elderly and people with reduced mobility, having the goal of assisting people in …
