Abstract
The changing demography requires new kinds of support for elderly people. Technical assistance systems could allow (aged) people to stay longer in well-known neighborhoods. While utilizing familiar media usage habits, the acceptance rate of a technical assistance system will be increased. Therefore, as many as possible potential communication methods between users and the assistance system are required. This paper describes a communication middleware for an assistance system which was originally designed and developed within the finished research project called “WEITBLICK”. The middleware has been continuously enhanced independently from the research project. Further, the paper will discuss two use cases and two demonstration applications which are utilizing the described communication middleware.
