QuestionsEffect on public policyResearch project results are “left on the
shelf” Interconnection – public policy for
implementation of “smart home”, for example
Review criteria – broader impact
![Page 25: ICADI Planning Workshop 26-27 June 2003 Royal Academy of Engineering London Notes from Michael W. Vannier](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052820/55189f74550346881f8b47f1/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
The death of competence Edinburgh’s enfant terribile New technology may require changes to the
“system” Not clear how to connect benefits with costs;
overcome inertia Effectiveness and efficiency Hospital stay vs. smart home costs
There may be a tradeoff, but unclear any savings are real.

Ga Tech – Aware HomeHow can your house help if it is “aware”How to construct such a house?
Approach Technology Applications Construction Socio-legal, ethical
![Page 28: ICADI Planning Workshop 26-27 June 2003 Royal Academy of Engineering London Notes from Michael W. Vannier](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052820/55189f74550346881f8b47f1/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Smart structures, materialsSick buildingRadon daughtersMost health problems are due to
lifestyle; reflected in behaviors; risk factors
Most health information on the internet is of doubtful value
![Page 29: ICADI Planning Workshop 26-27 June 2003 Royal Academy of Engineering London Notes from Michael W. Vannier](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052820/55189f74550346881f8b47f1/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Problem statement Healthy aging Rehabilitative assistance Preoccupied with interventions Good intentions, but not very specific about needs Few numbers; graphs of indicators
Not like economics, epidemiology Epidemiology of healthy aging? Screening studies of frail elderly
When stop screening mammography? Piecemeal strategy; fragmented approach
Not like cancer (count the dead)
![Page 30: ICADI Planning Workshop 26-27 June 2003 Royal Academy of Engineering London Notes from Michael W. Vannier](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052820/55189f74550346881f8b47f1/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Assisted living How can independent adults live alone as they age?
Digital family portrait Sense, measure, monitor?
Need for interaction with others Meals? Smart floors Webs of cameras to track motion; ceiling sensors Room mapping Gesture pendant – simplified home control Eye tracking
![Page 31: ICADI Planning Workshop 26-27 June 2003 Royal Academy of Engineering London Notes from Michael W. Vannier](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022052820/55189f74550346881f8b47f1/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Recognize what a person is doing Recognize complex interactions Relate human motion and object context Extend appearance-based representations
Potential for abuse; loss of privacy, intrusive machines

Millennium Homes A Foresight/Link project by a consortium of
(Brunel Univ, British Telecom, Huntleigh Healthcare Ltd, Beaver Housing Assn, Plextek Ltd, Special Security Products)
Metastatble people No condition requiring constant nursing Ability to manage the activities of normal life within
the community with only minimal support Possibly some deficiency in short term memory Inability always to respond to challenges pose by
domestic conditions

GoalAllow “metastable” people to be able to
remain in their own homes for longer In appropriate circumstances to allow
the community to operate the systemTo make it possible to fit the required
technology in any home in one day

Big difference The system is interactive and able to
negotiate with the occupant, using speech, screens or other means to issue warnings and to accept responses from the occupant. These will acknowledge a warning, or modify the action taken by the system.
Failure to remove the hazard after a warning, such as locking the back door, …

SensorsReal
Location, activity, state of doors, windows, domestic appliances, time, special actions, like taking of medication
Virtual Any combination of the state of any of the
above, taken in conjunction with what has happened previously

Flexibility The system is not designed merely to detect a
few pre-determined conditions, but is adaptable and extensible.
Embedded computer Many similarities to automotive computers
That manage fuel system, emissions control, multiobjective optimization, monitors, safety, accidents, …
And this is done with compliance to standards, modular components, real time software OS
