The main features of the CONFIDENCE system will be:
- Reliability. This aspect is essential to increase the quality of life of the elderly. The system must have low false alarm rates.
- Self-learning; that is, the system will “learn” from previous situations.
- Non-intrusive,in order to preserve the user’s privacy. Moreover, the user will keep control on the alarm protocol and location data will only be processed with the consent of the user and for the necessary duration for the provision of a value added service. Thus, CONFIDENCE will follow the Directive 95/46/EC about the protection of personal data and the Directive 2002/58/EC about the protection of personal data in the electronic communication sector.
- Ease of use. The system will be easy to use. Since it is a portable system it has to be easy to wear, so that it does not constrain the user’s daily life.
