In 2041, nearly 1/3 of the population in Hong Kong will be an elderly. This will create a great demand for care to the society as well as families. An elderly-friendly or age-friendly environment should encourage active ageing by allowing elderlies to remain active and independent, as both leads to better physical and mental health. This can be done with the help of different types of assistive technologies as showcased at GIES Exhibition (cover image above) and medical fair.
One of such is Aerolet, an electric toilet lift that assists elderlies getting on/off the toilet, reducing the risk of falling due to weakened legs and slippery environment. Aerolet can be retrofitted into most existing bathrooms and restrooms.

Another type of assistive technology is Fall Detection and Monitoring. But instead of the use of camera recordings, eLsa⢠uses a simple dual PIR motion sensors that has IP44 rating, suitable even for sensitive areas such as bathrooms. Upon entering/exiting room or should a fall in the bathroom occur, it will report such activities and send alerts to smartphones and PC stations. Reducing the health risks of independent living with the reassurance of protecting your privacy.
