Safety Labs User and Performance Validation

The Safety Labs platform is an ‘always connected’ Internet of Things (IOT) cloud computing based system that focused on aging in place and well being for older adults through ongoing health knowledge. This project will focus on a trial with a population of older adults in the Ottawa region that will trial the system with a focus on understanding the following key attributes of the system:
• Usability and reliability of the system as assessed by the older adults and their ability to use the system over the trial period.
• Operational usability and performance as assessed by researchers with clinical backgrounds to understand the system capability and value for ongoing knowledge of the older adults.
• Technical performance of the system include uptime and operational accuracy.
