1 universaal UNIVERsal open pla/orm and reference Specifica8on for Ambient Assisted Living Large scale Integrated Project in EU 7th Framework Programme (Priority 7.1b: ICT & Aging) Joe Gorman Project Coordinator SINTEF ICT, Trondheim, Norway AAL Forum Odense, September 2010

3 Main ObjecGve To make it technically possible and economically feasible to design and deploy innovative AAL services Providing an open and scalable technological plalorm that facilitates the development and deployment of a broad range of AAL services Carrying out support ac8vi8es promo8ng widespread acceptance and adopgon of the pla/orm. Approach: Consolidate & extend work of earlier projects * Duration: 48 months * Start: February 2010 * Budget: 13.9 M * EU Funding: 10.5 M 3 AAL Forum

4 The unifying ring : our project slogan (J.R.R. Tolkein Lord of the Rings ) 4 AAL Forum

5 One way to build them all, One way to bind them ; Instead of each AAL service being built from scratch for specific needs establish a single standard way to build AAL applica8ons Make it easy for different vendors to create & sell different components: through a process of binding they can be incorporated in mul8ple AAL services AAL Service AAL Service Implementation Approach/ Architecture Implementation Approach/ Architecture AAL Service universaal Reference Architecture AAL Service Implementation Approach/ Architecture Components Components 5 AAL Forum

6 One Store to save them all, and help the users find them ; We will create the universaal store (ustore) akin to Apple s App Store A single place where users can easily find, download and (maybe) pay for applica8ons matching their needs More than just find : also easily download and deploy 6 AAL Forum

8 Types of users Primary Users End-Users 8 AAL Forum

9 End users: examples of services Media Interaction Intuitive handling of devices Emergency Monitoring of sleep Sport and Social Interaction 9 AAL Forum Odense, September 2010

10 End users: sub groups Elderly Family members Carers Medical staff Local authori8es responsible for care Companies providing care 10 AAL Forum

11 Primary Users Working for companies producing complete AAL solutions Working for companies producing AAL components Software architects/ developers Working alone, open source community Device Manufacturers Our work is aimed mostly but not exclusively at these primary users 11 AAL Forum

12 Main technical result: universaal plalorm Runtime support Development support Community support AAL Platform Services Alarms, Fall detection, Message board, Personal Health Record Adapter, +++ Developer depot ustore Generic Platform Services Context awareness, Security, Personalisation support, Accessibility support, +++ Execution Environment: Common API Developer tools Reference architecture Example AAL services Training Aimed at end-users Execution Environment: OS + hardware specific Guidelines Roadmap Ericsson Android HP Windows +++ Nokia Symbian IBM Linux 12 AAL Forum

13 The ustore concept Upload Apple s App Store Browse and select Application Developers iphone Download and run Users Upload universaal ustore Browse and select Application Developers Download and run universaal platform Users Run User s execution platform (PC/MAC; devices; network connections etc.) 13 AAL Forum

14 Benefits General: Cost reduc8on through resource sharing and wider market. End users: Easier to obtain customised solu8ons; greater uniformity in interac8on styles. Developers: Easier for small organisa8ons, small set of programming interfaces. Deployers: Simple, easy to configure and adapt. Market: More compe88on; easier for SMEs and niche service providers / device manufacturers 14 AAL Forum

25 Community Building process Three Pillar Model Manifesto encourage industry and academic world to par8cipate in forming an associa8on to developing and exploit AAL pla/orms AssociaGon Will support and coordinate AAL research and development as part of an open community of stakeholders CompeGGon Promote ac8ve par8cipa8on. First compe88on will involves analysing, comparing and evalua8ng solu8ons proposed by researchers Manifesto Association Competition 25 AAL Forum
