Virtual smart house to showcase different Telecare options

The MI (More Independent) DALLAS project offers a link to a virtual smart house to showcase the different forms of Telehealth technologies that exist. I have recently been to the AKTIVE conference and already there it struck me how large and varied the range of Telehealth devices are. Going through this virtual smart house, it brings home again, that many of those technologies are useful for anyone of any age and health.
For example, the MagiPlug, which stops overflowing and indicates when the water temperature is too hot, should be useful for anyone who also has small children.
At the same time the 'Bath SPA Light Experience' are a nice to have, but I can't see the direct relevance to Telehealth apart from creating a nice and relaxing atmosphere. The selection of the technologies featured in the house may have been chosen with economical interests, nevertheless it promotes awareness of technologies around.
