Abstract
This paper introduces the Monitor de Salud Personal created by Telefónica I+D in cooperation with the Departamento de Informática y Automática of the University of Salamanca. This project fits within the activities related to the management of a “Digital Home”, and it is one of the projects that are currently under development in this field in Telefónica I+D. It is the aim of the project to explore various enabling technologies based on environmental intelligence, by means of which the user interacts with his or her home in various scenarios: home assistance and wellbeing, entertainment, identity management in a home environment, and location management in a home. The Monitor de Salud Personal we describe is intended to satisfy the objective of home assistance and wellbeing, and it fits well within Ambient Assisted Living Joint Programme of the European community [1].
