The Aware Home Research Initiative (AHRI) at Georgia Tech is devoted to the multidisciplinary exploration of emerging technologies and services based in the home. Starting in 1998, our collection of faculty and students has created a unique research facility that allows us to simulate and evaluate user experiences with off-theshelf and state-of-the-art technologies. With specific expertise in health, education, entertainment and usable security, we are able to apply our research to problems of significant social and economic impact. Keywords Aware home, smart home, home, aging in place, children, sensors ACM Classification Keywords H5.m. Information interfaces and presentation (e.g., HCI): Miscellaneous.
