10 . Months ago community (社区) workers on Jiangsu Street in Shanghai fixed smart devices (装置) on taps (水龙头) for old people living alone there.
If an old person uses less than 0.01m³ of water in about 12 hours, the smart device will send an alarm to the community workers. They will then try to find out if the old person is OK.
It’s said that the community workers also plan to set up devices on the doors of old people living alone. The alarms will go off if the doors are closed for a long time.
The move has won much praise on the Internet. Many people see it as a great example of technology (科技) serving people and call for its use across the country.
Smart devices do make our lives easier and more comfortable, but something better about the Shanghai experience is not technology, but the human touch.
In fact, it’s not very difficult to fix smart devices on taps and doors. However, one needs to make sure that a worker is waiting at the other end of the system (系统) to hear the alarm. In order to make the system work well, several community workers have to be at work 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Of course, we shouldn’t forget those people coming up with the idea. It might be a better idea to give them prizes so that they can do even better to help old people.
