Hello Bob and Henry of AIMMM,

I have been involved in a European project called SILC: System for
Independent Living Citizens.  The system is based around a wrist-worn
speaking PDA, with sensors and Bluetooth, allowing alarm signals to be
sent to a service centre.  The device can also be used as a cordless
phone.

One of the main aims of SILC is allow elderly people or others at risk
to remain at home safely, without the need for institutionalisation.

See http://www.fortec.tuwien.ac.at/silcweb/SILC

Let me know whether you'd be interested in the system for AIMMM.  A
final prototype is to be produced within the next few months of the
project.

Regards,

John
