DREAMING<br />
DREAMING integrated familiar devices - such as blood pressure cuffs, mobile phones and<br />
TV – in a single plat<strong>for</strong>m. The system is based on a “box” installed at the user’s home and<br />
connected to the network. Key in<strong>for</strong>mation on the environment where the person lives and<br />
on his/her clinical parameters are sent to a Contact Centre which can take action and, when<br />
necessary, dispatches the appropriate resources (e.g. fire brigade or ambulance).<br />

Independent living is also at the core of the<br />
ROSETTA project, which specifically addressed<br />
people with progressive chronic disabilities,<br />
helping them to keep their independence and<br />
quality of life as long as possible, and supporting<br />
their carers. The project’s targets were in<br />
particular people suffering from dementia (in the<br />
different stages of the illness) and Parkinson’s<br />
disease.<br />
In the period 2011-2012 the developed system<br />
was tested in field trials with users in Belgium, The<br />
Netherlands and Germany to evaluate not only<br />
the user friendliness of the system, but also its<br />
impact on the quality of life of the elderly people<br />
with chronic disabilities and their caregivers. After<br />
the project’s completion in May 2012, the different parts of the Rosetta system are<br />
being progressively brought to the market.<br />
Rosetta<br />
The Rosetta system is based on:<br />
• An advanced awareness and prevention service, e.g. smart cameras to monitor users’<br />
activities;<br />
• An early detection system to monitor behaviours and detect changes in chronic longterm<br />
conditions;<br />
• An elderly day navigator, e.g. reminders of daily activities, a visual phonebook, digital<br />
communication facilities.<br />
