Meet the developer behind Calgary's first fully automated apartments for people with disabilities

The push of a button or a simple voice command can turn on the lights, adjust the temperature, open blinds and change the TV channel — all thanks to a Calgary developer who has found a way to fully automate daily tasks to help people with limited mobility live independently.

His technology will be used the city’s first fully automated assisted living apartment building, Inclusio.

“What we did is we map out what everybody does every sort of day: morning, noon, night,” Mike Dummer, president of Digital Lifestyles, said. “We’ve put it in the palm of their hand with a tablet or a phone.”
