The Open architecture for Accessible Services Integration and Standardization (OASIS) project - a Large Scale Integrated Project co-financed by the European Commission under the 7th Framework Programme - has recently released its first animated project video.

The OASIS project's scope is to revolutionise the interoperability, quality, width and usability of services for all the daily activities of older people. More specifically, OASIS intends to use ICT and other key technologies to provide holistic services to older people in order to support their physical and psychological independence, stimulate their social or psychological engagement and foster their emotional well being. In doing so, OASIS thus addresses key areas of the activities of the elderly encompassing: independent living and socialising, autonomous mobility and flexible work-ability.

The project started on 1 January 2008 and has a total duration of four years.

In the newly released video, the two main characters (John and Sue) use the OASIS services on a daily basis.

The video includes the following cases of application of the OASIS project:

  • Independent living applications;
  • Nutritional advisor;
  • Activity coach;
  • Brain and skills trainer;
  • Social communities platform;
  • Health monitoring;
  • Environmental control;
  • Autonomous Mobility and Smart Workplaces Applications;
  • Transport information services;
  • Route guidance;
  • Personal mobility;
  • Smart workplaces.

The OASIS project consortium is composed of 33 partners from 11 countries, namely Belgium, Bulgaria, China, Germany, Greece, Italy, Mexico, Romania, Spain, Switzerland and United Kingdom. Large Industries, SMEs, Universities, Research Centres, Non-Profit Organisations, Public Organisations and Healthcare Centres are represented among the partners.
