Amon Reich, founder of SmartLiving.Rocks, has developed the SeniorenSmarthome project, which utilizes Grafana dashboards and open-source technology to support Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) for elderly individuals, enabling them to maintain independence in their homes. Motivated by the need to monitor his father's well-being, Reich adapted existing smart home devices to track activity using sensors connected to a Grafana dashboard, providing real-time insights into daily routines and offering peace of mind without the high costs of hiring aides or moving to assisted living. The system, which runs on an Intel NUC with Proxmox and Home Assistant, leverages Grafana's intuitive dashboard creation and features like interval functionality and stacking to present meaningful data visualizations. A strong advocate for open-source collaboration, Reich encourages others to contribute to enhancing AAL solutions by sharing insights and improving algorithms, with the aim of creating accessible and effective support systems for the aging population.
