Abstract
This paper introduces SmartCare, a project revolving around a smart environment especially built to enable aging in place. The paper describes the vision behind SmartCare as well as its translation into a deployed system. The physical incarnation of SmartCare is the SmartCare apartment, an actual apartment in a retirement community. We provide a description the technologies that are deployed in the SmartCare apartment. This paper does not introduce novel algorithms for smart environments, rather it provides an architectural system description of a real smart environment that was designed to enable aging in place.
