Ambient Assisted Living (AAL)
• An integration of stand-alone assistive technologies, with elements of smart homes, and telehealth services.
A Global Opportunity
• The Global Smart Homes market is estimated to be $13.4 billion by 2014, growing at a CAGR of 16.5% from 2009 to 2014, driven by the increasing ageing population worldwide.
