Recent advances in mobile positioning systems and telecommunications are providing the technology needed for the development of location-aware tele-care applications. This paper introduces CAALYX--Complete Ambient Assisted Living Experiment, an EU-funded project that aims at increasing older people's autonomy and self-confidence by developing a wearable light device capable of measuring specific vital signs of the elderly, detecting falls and location, and communicating automatically in real-time with his/her care provider in case of an emergency, wherever the older person happens to be, at home or outside.
移动定位系统和电信领域的最新进展为位置感知远程护理应用的开发提供了所需技术。本文介绍了CAALYX——全面环境辅助生活实验，这是一个由欧盟资助的项目，旨在通过开发一种可穿戴轻型设备来增强老年人的自主性和自信心，该设备能够测量老年人的特定生命体征、检测跌倒和位置，并在紧急情况下无论老年人在家中还是外出，都能实时自动与他/她的护理人员进行通信。
