Indeed, it works as a probe of concept but unless mass produced the cost is quite high for the average household. Should be targeting more specific consumers like elderly or people in early stages of Alzheimer.

Thanks Tiago, my classmates made really nice projects, if you hadn’t time to check them out have a look, there’s awesome stuff. You are right, I used an ID12 in the diagram, Fritzing has no model for UHF readers and I had no time to make one myself, apologies if it was confusing. Yes, I [...]

That’s a great idea James!, actually you could monitor anything, just attach any sensor (i.e: heat sensor or smoke in the kitchen, power meter in a power outlet…). All that you need is collect the data via radio to a host (could be Arduino or your PC) and use the knob device to provide the [...]

Thanks Steven,
The main component is the UHF RFID reader, I posted the links to the parts in the previous comment. The communication between modules is made using XBee radio controlled by a centralised Arduino board. Please refer to the Fritzing diagrams for interconnection.

The target audience is everyone of us but specially aims [...] -

Quick recap From the grounding research there were identified 3 thoughtless acts in which there could be an opportunity for innovation: How to remember to take things with you. How to keep a casual conversation by videocall while performing routinary tasks. Self-projection, people’s main ways of self-expression
Where did I put my…?The observations and replies to the grounding survey seemed to confirm [...] -

Observation begins in your closest environment, there’s no need to get out from home to observe how people interact with the environment, observe your roommates, your partner, your friends when you go for a visit; there’s no environment in which people behave more naturally and more automatically than in their homes. Our day, specially during weekdays, [...] -

Ardunie is an animatronic head which follows your position with his eyes, when he feels that you have spent time enough with him to consider you his friend (and if he is in the mood) he will try to engage you in a small talk.
