INDEPENDENT: Technology Supported Autonomous Living
نویسندگان
چکیده
ICT enabled Service Integration for Independent Living (INDEPENDENT) is an ICT – PSP project funded under objective 1.3 ICT for ageing well / independent living. Work has started as early as February 2010 and expected to finish after 3 years. INDIPENDENT will address current limitations of telehealth and telecare platforms to serve needs for support and delivery of support to the elderly which is not limited to a single sector (healthcare or social care) but spans the two sectors and empowers informal carers and the third sector to participate in delivery of support. This paper will discuss the Greek experience when drafting pilot scenarios that fit into the project’s goals.

Towards an Autonomous, Unmanned Aerial Vehicle for Indoor Flight in Healthcare; a Review of Research Challenges and Approaches
The development of advanced indoor navigation systems for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) has aroused extensive interest recently because of its great potential. In comparison to outdoor flight, indoor navigation poses several unique challenges in stability and control for quadcopter operability. This review paper investigates these research challenges and explores solutions that exist to addre...
متن کاملAdaptive Robust Control for Trajectory Tracking of Autonomous underwater Vehicles on Horizontal Plane
This manuscript addresses trajectory tracking problem of autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) on the horizontal plane. Adaptive sliding mode control is employed in order to achieve a robust behavior against some uncertainty and ocean current disturbances, assuming that disturbance and its derivative are bounded by unknown boundary levels. The proposed approach is based on a dual layer adaptive...

متن کاملPERIODIC SOLUTIONS OF CERTAIN THREE DIMENSIONAL AUTONOMOUS SYSTEMS
There has been extensive work on the existence of periodic solutions for nonlinear second order autonomous differantial equations, but little work regarding the third order problems. The popular Poincare-Bendixon theorem applies well to the former but not the latter (see [2] and [3]). We give a necessary condition for the existence of periodic solutions for the third order autonomous system...
متن کاملFrom Healthy to Happy Ageing: the Power of Self-Management
Background. Healthy ageing is about optimising opportunities for good health, so that older people can take an active part in society and enjoy an independent and high quality of life [1]. In the last 15-20 years, many research projects under FP7, H2020 and AAL frameworks proposed novel solutions aimed at improving good health also ensuring a more independent living and an higher quality of lif...
