Technological progress must aim at creating Society 5.0 by developing tools to support people. This contribution aims to show how modern technologies and their integration into society can support people with fragility. In particular, the authors present the prototype of a technology that the Turin Polytechnic has developed to provide an IoT device control tool for people with motor neuron degeneration. This, through the use of eye-trackers and building information models (BIM), allows the navigation of models in virtual reality and interaction with different devices and services. Furthermore, the use of micro-services and the use of standard exchange formats allow easy integration with different services. The authors want to show how it is possible to build applications that, by bridging the real and the visual, can restore autonomy and quality of life to the frailest people.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
