Abstract
The aim of this research is to present a novel idea of interoperable, independent living ICT solutions using global standards that will improve the quality of life of older people in their home or community environment, by enabling them to stay active, mobile and independent for longer. The proposed innovation takes a multidisciplinary approach using both open source standards and technology for maximum interoperability and affordability, and user driven content development for sustainable care systems of tomorrow. In addition to the development of interoperable independent living technology solutions, guidelines for business models and methodologies to create appropriate content will also be developed.
