people aged 65 and older than children under the age of 5
• By the year 2050, 1 in 3 Americans will 60+
• By the year 2030, 71.5M Americans will be 65+
• By the year 2020, over 10M Americans will be 85+
• 93% of Americans 65 and older remain living in their homes
• 80% of Women over the age of 85 are widowed or divorced

Technology as an Assistant
Our system takes all of the
inputs from internet of things
devices, network of sensors and
the user, and creates a virtual
model of the environment from
which it can make decisions and
track patterns.
It then anticipates the users
needs and wishes and performs
duties based on historical
actions of the user and rules. It
learns from its environment and
from the users correcting and
directing it.

The user doesn’t have to use a computer
6
Roxie is designed so the user doesn’t have to touch a mouse or keyboard to use it,
all control is done using voice or just by moving around the home.
Many Seniors will not use a computer,
Some have a phobia about them
so we did away with the look and feel of one.
(Of course they can use their computer or tablet to operate)

Its about the Inter of Things (IOT)
• Motion Sensors located strategically
around residence
• Used for motion tracking and lack of
motion
• Contain sensors for temperature,
humidity, light level and ultraviolet
light level.
• Can also be used for automation of
lighting
• Are part of intrusion detection system
• Other sensors used for doors, drawers,
etc.

The solution is more than technology
11
By analyzing data from
sensors, biometric readings,
the residents’ normal
activities and data from
services provided, a picture of
the resident can be
virtually modeled,
then monitored for deviations
that can be alerted to
providers and family.
Allowing the resident to get
the best personalized care.

It is a complete solution
By merging sophisticated virtual modeling, data from many
supporting sources and the sensor ecosystem, we track patterns with
predictive analytics.

The Solution adapts to needs
• Special needs are no problem, using voice
control, touch screens or person and location,
many adaptation technologies can be
integrated, including height adjustable
cabinets and tops,
lowering top cabinets, adjustable sinks, touch or
voice controlled faucets, chair lifts, person lifts and
even autonomous wheelchairs.
Its more than a smart house

An Evolutionary Step for the Kitchen
Our voice-activated, automated cabinet system is a modular
environment that raises and lowers cooking tools and pantry items
to easier-to-reach levels.
