The world demographic projections showed a rise of the elderly population as result of the increase in life expectancy. To check all the possible assistance to the elderly to live this new stage with dignity, autonomy, self-reliance, mobility, security, health and well-being, is a challenge for the Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) technology approach. In this sense, this study attempted to create an Android software to allow disabled and elderly persons to control home devices (lamps, alarm, etc.) and to obtained temperature and other information through speech via an Android Phone.
