With aging, it is common for a person to prefer living an independent life. However, aging often comes with physical limitations and health issues. Activities of daily life (ADLs) become challenging for older adults. Sometimes, daily rituals are not performed due to a lack of motivation or memory issues, which can affect their health. They need to maintain a daily rhythm for their well-being. This study aims to find possible solutions to motivate and remind elderly persons living alone at home about their ADLs in possible and indirect ways. Due to the COVID pandemic, Zero UI technology is in trend, and this study aims to use this technology to solve the problem.
The study was conducted as a part of the HIPPA-Remote project carried out at Metropolia University of Applied Sciences. The HIPPA-Remote project provides services for product developers to support housing for the elderly and focuses on the development of digital services to improve the well-being and housing of the elderly.
The outcome of the study is some solutions and a proof-of-concept. This proof- of-concept has the potential to be developed further for business applications.
