The ideal way to integrate the elderly community with the different actors like their communities, related interests, meeting places through different touch point, positively increasing the users.
SERVICE SYSTEM & TOUCHPOINT
The main device is a smart watch that is connected to an app. The smart watch works through a Voice Assistant and a touch system to simplify interaction. The service suggested activities based on user preferences, allowing to search and notify the events that are already scheduled. The smart watch has a “contactless” system that allows you to create a network of contacts among those who use it simply by moving the watches closer together and adding the new contact or the new event venue.
