Abstract
This paper presents the enhanced remote control and its role in pervasive health care in the home. The device was equipped with health-related measurement modules and a message-processing unit. Preliminary results are presented for monitoring of a pulse, hand tremors, grip forces, and for self-evaluation procedures. The interaction of the device with the smart environment is presented and discussed.
