Project Overview:

The multidisciplinary project “ActiVAS: Built Enviroments for an Active, Safe and Healthy Life”, financed by PT202, will allow the implementation and validation of an assisted environment “Active, Safe and Healthy Life” based on a pilot that will integrate solutions developed for new environments and spaces – personalized lifelong health, intervening in several aspects: support to the proximity care network (support to informal caregivers in the management of daily activities, web interface for filling in patient information, activity management; app with playful/social information), promotion of human functionality through physical and cognitive stimulation; interaction of the built space through its digitization using Augmented Reality technologies; development of new materials or adaptation of existing material manufacturing processes that allow the integration (in-built) of sensors used by home automation solutions; development of adaptive and transformable modular structures; integration of sensory systems, monitoring, furniture and equipment in new or existing solutions of prefabricated modular construction systems, allowing the rapid mutation of the set or isolated element and responding to programmatic premises or specific human needs.

The ActiVAS project, led by the company KENTRA Technologies, brings together a consortium of 12 business and eight non-business entities from the Habitat, TICE and Health value chains (companies, clusters, universities, technology centers, among others) with the purpose of adding capacities and scientific and technological skills that, in partnership, will allow the generation of new knowledge with significant impacts.
