Abstract
This paper presents an infrastructure for supporting elderly-people needs by simple interactions with the environment through an augmented-reality perspective. We propose a general and adaptive model to transform physical information of objects in the environment into a virtual representation through accelerometers and digital compasses. The model also makes use of principles of the Semantic Web that provides context-awareness and user personalization to the proposed services. The model have been adapted to implement an application using iPhone technology and applied to illustrative problems into Ambient Assisted Living scenarios.
