Helping the Lonely Elderly to Reconnect

A project that made for Philips.

The target group was elderly people. Many immediately went to alzheimer, however, we felt that we could do more.

We decided, after research, to go with the lonely elderly. We noticed that they felt disconnected, especially with the technology rushing away from them.

So we created a device, which allows people to communicate with each other. It recognises people around you that you met and that also lonely. It then creates  chat channel so to speak.
