Moreover, it is the place where old people suffer from most domestic injuries. This paper presents a novel design, implementation and assessment of a Smart Kitchen which provides Ambient Assisted Living services; a smart environment that increases elderly and disabled people’s autonomy in their kitchen-related activities through context and user awareness, appropriate user interaction and artificial intelligence. It is based on a modular architecture which integrates a wide variety of home technology (household appliances, sensors, user interfaces, etc.) and associated communication standards and media (power line, radio frequency, infrared and cabled). Its software architecture is based on the Open Services Gateway initiative (OSGi), which allows building a complex system composed of small modules, each one providing the specific functionalities required, and can be easily scaled to meet our needs. The system has been evaluated by a large number of real users (63) and carers (31) in two living labs in Spain and UK. Results show a large potential of system functionalities combined with good usability and physical, sensory and cognitive accessibility. 000032461 540__ $$9info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess$$aby$$uhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/ 000032461 590__ $$a2.245$$b2014 000032461 591__ $$aINSTRUMENTS & INSTRUMENTATION$$b10 / 56 = 0.179$$c2014$$dQ1$$eT1 000032461 591__ $$aCHEMISTRY, ANALYTICAL$$b31 / 74 = 0.419$$c2014$$dQ2$$eT2 000032461 591__ $$aELECTROCHEMISTRY$$b14 / 27 = 0.519$$c2014$$dQ3$$eT2 000032461 655_4 $$ainfo:eu-repo/semantics/article$$vinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion 000032461 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0002-7396-7840$$aMarco, Álvaro$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000032461 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0001-5316-8171$$aCasas, Roberto$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000032461 700__ $$aCirujano, Diego 000032461 700__ $$aPicking, R. 000032461 7102_ $$15008$$2785$$aUniversidad de Zaragoza$$bDepartamento de Ingeniería Electrónica y Comunicaciones$$cTecnología Electrónica 000032461 7102_ $$15007$$2520$$aUniversidad de Zaragoza$$bDepartamento de Informática e Ingeniería de Sistemas$$cIngeniería de Sistemas y Automática 000032461 773__ $$g14, 1 (2014), 1629-1653$$pSensors$$tSENSORS$$x1424-8220 000032461 8564_ $$s2926768$$uhttps://zaguan.unizar.es/record/32461/files/texto_completo.pdf$$yVersión publicada 000032461 8564_ $$s91655$$uhttps://zaguan.unizar.es/record/32461/files/texto_completo.jpg?subformat=icon$$xicon$$yVersión publicada 000032461 909CO $$ooai:zaguan.unizar.es:32461$$particulos$$pdriver 000032461 951__ $$a2017-08-16-13:30:04 000032461 980__ $$aARTICLE
