Ageing is a central challenge for EU societies as the number of elderlies is on the rise. Ageing has significant social and financial impacts due to higher incidence of health disturbances such as hearing loss, cardiovascular diseases, mental and balance disorders. The trend in elderly care is to search for solutions for the prevention and effective treatment of age-related ailments. The EU-funded SMART BEAR project will develop a platform based on a variety of sensors and mobile instruments that will permanently collect data on their daily life and analyse these to provide personalised interventions. The SMART BEAR solution will be tested in large-scale pilots involving 5.000 elderly people living at home in France, Greece, Italy, Romania, Spain and Portugal. The SMART BEAR projects comprises of 27 partners from 11 countries, coordinated by ICAR-CNR.
