In this paper we describe a framework to build ambient assisted living (AAL) applications able to transform a conventional environment in a smart environment using low cost technology. The main purpose of this work is to assist people with disabilities in their residences or works promoting the social inclusion
The system allows its users to be their own remote control to control different appliances of their house or office, interacting with them naturally using HCI and natural user interfaces
This document is organized as follows: first, we present an introduction to AAL and describe the related work. In Section 2, we describe the main aspects of the implementation of the framework. Section 3 explains the communication between the different devices and describes a prototype. Finally, Section 4 introduces the limitations of the system, while section 5 concludes the paper.
