Imagine if everyday life in later years became a little safer – completely automatically. Without any extra steps, without new habits, without having to constantly think about it. That's exactly what modern smart home technology makes possible in the field of Ambient Assisted Living.
When Security Becomes a State of the Art
Being able to take care of yourself in later life is something that everyone wants for themselves – a piece of independence that means quality of life.
Cooking for yourself is often one of the small pleasures of everyday life and is also a symbol of independence. But sometimes, after cooking, the stove is accidentally left on – and suddenly there is cause for concern. For yourself and for those who care about you.
Today, modern smart home technology provides security in the background. With a home that thinks for itself, a potential risk becomes a feeling of security – every day.
Smart Home Technology as a Silent Companion in Everyday Life
Around one in five house fires start on the kitchen stove – usually because something is left unattended while cooking. Older adults are particularly at risk, as turning off the stove can easily be overlooked.
The smart home system from Loxone offers valuable support here. Automation turns the home into a silent helper that detects risks and reacts independently. If the stove is left unattended for too long, the system switches it off automatically.
A small technical aid with a big impact – for safety, confidence and an independent life.
Living Independently With Technology That Thinks for Itself
But the support doesn’t stop there. The Loxone smart home solution provides additional security in many everyday situations without being intrusive.
Intelligent presence and motion detection can detect when someone has not moved for an unusually long time – a potential indication of a fall.
In such a case, the system can automatically send a notification to relatives or emergency services and give them access to the apartment or house.
If the system detects movement at night, it activates a soft orientation light, ensuring safety on the way to the bathroom or kitchen.
With Loxone, your home remains familiar, safe and comfortable – and residents retain what is most important: a sense of independence and security within their own four walls.
When Technology Supports You Unnoticed
Home – it’s more than just a place. It’s the space where you feel safe and secure.
Many people want to stay there – for as long as possible, living independently and safely.
With smart automation, this wish can become reality.
Your home thinks for itself and quietly ensures that everything is in order. It offers you support that you hardly notice – but feel every day. This allows you to concentrate on what really matters: your life in your familiar and safe home.
Safety and independence through smart home technology
Thanks to smart home technology from Loxone, life in old age becomes safer and more comfortable. Your independence and safety come first, while the technology works unobtrusively in the background to ensure that you feel completely protected and cared for.
