Hot Topics
Eyes of Internet of Things Competence Centre – EIT-CC
Focuses on the development of an infrastructure to physically observe
multiple data sources, act accordingly in the environment and provide a ‘holistic’
understanding of the user.
Companion Competence Centre – C3
Companions are specialized frontends of ‘big machines’ (IoT/Big Data
solutions) that serve human users.
Focuses on the creation of real working prototypes built on top of processed
data provided by the technology developed in the EIT-CC.

Companions are like the long time friends that:
Help you when you need them
Understand you and your demands and needs
Interact with you (like a team member in a game)
And get things done efficiently and conveniently
Companions are front ends of large ‘machines’ (systems that deploy the
power of the IoT and Big Data)
More than just apps

Active ageing
We work to support
active ageing through
technology, but what
exactly constitutes
active ageing?
15. © Fraunhofer Portugal 2015 15
5. Currently Cooking…
Nutrition
Active ageing is based upon
physical activity and food
And nutrition, even if only
seen through the
perspective of the older
adult as final consumer, is a
very complex thing!
Our user research has
provided some insights…

Nutrition: Motivation
’’
1 in every 6 seniors reaching the emergency room are malnourished1
Low income, less educated and elderly people suffer more often from malnutrition
Malnutrition often leads to chronic diseases
Chronic diseases cause significant costs to health care systems
Good nutrition is an important factor in preventive health
Reference: Pereira, G. F., Bulik, C. M., Weaver, M. A., Holland, W. C., & Platts-Mills, T. F. (2015, January). Malnutrition among cognitively intact, noncritically
ill older adults in the emergency department. Annals of Emergency Medicine, 65(1), 85-91.

6. The Future
23. © Fraunhofer Portugal 2015 23
The IoT & Big Data connect
currently isolated industrial islands.
This leads to disruptive and rapid
changes in ‘old economies' business
models.
From branch internal
competition to cross-sector
collaborations.
Slow companies might not survive
because they didn’t recognize the
train that was hitting them.
Business Level
6. The Future
24. © Fraunhofer Portugal 2015 24
It is a new IoT & Big data enabled business model
It is attractive for all stakeholders due to cost reduction / margin increase effects
It is even more attractive for consumers (Health nutrition is the best prevention!)
It is addressing a demographic problem (seniors often lack money and have
increased deficits related to cooking and meal planning)
It is addressing a societal problem (food waste)
It is ecological (food waste, regional, seasonal , CO2…)
IT IS MORE FROM LESS FOR MORE!
6. 1 Example: Flat Rate Food
What is this supposed to be?
25. © Fraunhofer Portugal 2015 25
Retail of food products: High Turnover, Low Margin, Strong Competition
Food Waste Worldwide: 33% of all food produced (source: Food Wastage Footprint, FAO, 2013)
Production & Harvest: 32%
Handling & Storage: 23%
Processing: 11%
Distribution: 13%
Consumption: 21%
Remember the malnutrition facts!

4 Perspectives of the same
Consumer contracts a service! (e.g. 1 Month healthy food @ unbeatable
price!)
No fixed quantities and products! (supply based!)
Individual and triple feedback loop (supply, health, gusto) based Menu Planning
Supply ‘spins’ planning and consumption
Planned and supply based consumption reduces food waste and allows for optimized
supply chain
A win for everybody (remember FAO numbers!)
