This &#8220;service box&#8221;, developed by Life Supporting Technologies group, is an ICT tool that connects various sensors and actuators to provide its functionality, and it can be accessed through television, mobile phone or computer both from within and outside the home. All this in a personalized way for the user according to his needs and preferences.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Description of the technological base<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: small\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"margin-left: 10px;margin-right: 10px;float: left\" title=\"(example of commercial set-top box)\" src=\"http:\/\/www.upm.es\/observatorio\/vi\/gestor_general\/recuperar_archivo.jsp?id=266\" alt=\"Set - top box\" width=\"200\" height=\"163\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p>The LST-Box solution offers a system composed of hardware with internet connection and Bluetooth which integrates three services specifically designed to facilitate daily life of the older people:KNX domotic control (includes security alerts), management of social networks (Facebook and Twitter) and self monitoring of health care, to track daily blood pressure, weight, medication and diet via Bluetooth connection to a blood pressure cuff and a scale.<\/p>\n<p>These data can be shared with the primary care physician via email. LST-Box can be accessed through the television, computer or smartphone both within and outside the home.

ICT solutions can prolong independent living for the older people and extend the time they remain active and safe in their everyday environment.<\/li>\n<li>The process of aging is leading to an increasing number of older people (aged 65 years or over) with various health problems such as hypertension, obesity, dementia, etc.. It is necessary that health and welfare systems are adapted to be more friendly to older people, through active promotion of health and self-care.<\/li>\n<li>The main fears of getting older are living with physical limitations (worldwide, more than 46% of people over 60 have a disability), having to depend on other people (the dependence increases with age) and feeling alone [INE].<\/li>\n<li>Loneliness is a common problem among the older people, and the fact of living alone is not always an indicator of loneliness. For senior citizens, social support is very important, especially when something bad happens.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"font-size: small\"><em><strong>&ldquo;The main fears of getting older are: living with physical limitations, depending on others and feeling of loneliness&rdquo;&nbsp;<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<h4><strong>Competitive advantages<\/strong><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">Multiplatform: access to services through various devices (TV, mobile, tablet), vs. dedicated devices.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">Modularity: additional services and sensors can be installed, vs. closed, not modular systems.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">Configurable and personalizable solution, according to the user&rsquo;s needs and preferences, providing high usability levels.
