MATCH Home page

MATCH (Mobilising Advanced Technologies for Care at Home) is a collaborative research project focused on technologies for care at home. Although based in Scotland, our work is globally relevant.

We are helping by:

• maintaining the independence of those receiving social and health care at home
• improving their quality of life
• enhancing the care they receive at home
• easing the burden on their carers.

We can offer:

• expertise and research capacity in home care technologies
• techniques that integrate a variety of existing and future devices and services
• interfaces that allow our own solutions to work with others
• usable technologies that support delivery of social and health care at home
• guidelines and training on use of home care technologies.

We have specialised expertise in:

• home care networks and services
• lifestyle monitoring
• speech communication
• human interfaces using novel techniques.

Our end users are those at home with complex care needs: long-term illness, physical or mental impairment.

You can find out more about MATCH through a variety of online resources.
