“Tackling loneliness through innovative ideas”

In honour of #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek our friends at LCR 4.0 have showcased a case study of our fantastic IoT product, The Kettle Companion. 

In short, The Kettle Companion is an assisted living product, that helps those who live apart to stay connected, by illuminating when a loved one activates their kettle at home. This is signaled through a monitoring plug and communicated via Wi-Fi to a paired Kettle Companion in another user’s home. Additionally, if there is a change in pattern of use, for instance, an elderly parent has not had their habitual morning cup of tea by the usual time, the paired Kettle Companion will illuminate red. A text message alert can also be sent to the owner of this appliance, prompting them to check on their loved one. ​​​​
