BAALL – Bremen Ambient Assisted Living Lab
The Bremen Ambient Assisted Living Lab is an appartment suitable for the elderly and people with handicap. The appartment has a size of 60 m². It is located in one of the labs of the research department Safe and Secure Cognitive Systems of the German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence (DFKI) at the site in Bremen in the Cartesium, in cooperation with Universität Bremen in the EU project SHARE-it and in the SFB/TR8 Spatial Cognition of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft.

Seniors to be, people actively planning their future should arrange their living environment - in which they intend to live as long as possible - in a preferably early phase of their live. BAALL's look-and-feel is the one of a higher class apartment; technology is discreet, if even visible. Our aim is to investigate which infrastructure for technical assistance, possibly needed in the future, should be realised today to later on allow step-by-step upgrading on demand, without any major reconstructions and adaptions. Thus, scenarios for residing with different age-related physical and cognitive limitations have to be anticipated and possibilities for compensation through assistance to be planned.
An important technical precondition is the interoperability of all devices combined with their standardisation".
Sehr wichtig ist es uns, im BAALL die Alltagstauglichkeit der AAL-Assistenzsysteme überprüfen zu können. Hierzu arbeiten wir mit Kliniken und Anwenderverbänden zusammen.
Research Topics
Neben der Demonstration der Kooperation mit unseren Partnern aus Forschung und Industrie und den von ihnen entwickelten Produkten ist der Fokus die Entwicklung innovativer Aspekte, durch die sich das BAALL von anderen AAL-Forschungs-Wohnungen in Deutschland unterscheidet.
- An erster Stelle steht hier die Mobilitäts-Assistenz durch den Bremer Intelligenten Rollstuhl (Xeno, Otto Bock) sowie den IntelligentWalker; Rollstuhl und Rollator sind mit Sensorik und Aktorik ergänzt, um beim sicheren Fahren (Bremsen, automatisch Ausweichen) und der Navigation zu bekannten Zielen zu unterstützen.
- Bei Systemen zur Umgebungs-Assistenz wird die Erhöhung der Interoperabilität und Sicherheit untersucht, z.B. zzgl. der Gebäudeautomation. Ferner werden höhere Dienste zur Interaktion mit intelligenten Haushaltsgeräten und Möbeln (Küchenzeile, Kühlschrank, Schiebetüren, Kleiderschrank, Bett, ...) realisiert.
- Sowohl bei Systemen zur Mobilitäts- als auch Umgebungs-Assistenz wird die natürliche Interaktion mit den Nutzern groß geschrieben, durch Spezialgeräte zur Kompensation spezieller Einschränkungen, vor allem aber durch Betonung des gesprochenen Dialogs.
