FISECARE

Thin kiosk for touchless computing in Care Homes

Communicate with family
Exercise through games
Access help

Abstract

During the COVID-19 pandemic, restrictions were imposed on care home residents that made them unable to enjoy their normal life due to the decrease in human contact and activities. One of the major impacts of social isolation was the increased loneliness among care home residents.

Therefore, we have developed the application FISECARE that provides services to care home users such as online shopping, entertainment, communicating with family and accessing help, as well as encouraging them to exercise while having fun. This application is designed to run on a TV and use MotionInput touchless computing.

This enables users to access the internet in an easy and intuitive way, feel connected to family members and friends via chat and videocalls, and exercise physically and mentally through fun games while being indoors.
