Abstract

MindGym approach aims at providing an interoperable, independent living ICT solution to improve the quality of life of older people in their home or community environment. The concept is to develop such a solution that will enable elderly to stay active, mobile and independent for longer, keeping them in a good mental shape. This paper addresses the strategies on how to achieve this innovation by integrating social networks, IPTV, personalised self-care and cloud computing into an unique solution using both open source standards and technology for maximum interoperability and affordability.
