I am worried about my 90-year-old grandmother because even she should stay at home during COVID epidemic, she is continually getting out, doing “essential” things on the street, like buying some lottery tickets, talking with neighbours. I think this is not the right time for her to going out. One of the main reasons why she is leaving home is that she needs more interaction with people. She is afraid of new technical stuff, like mobile phones, which is why I decided to put together a Raspberry Pi-based video conferencing unit that she does not have to touch at all. There is no turning on / off, no starting of any calls. I wrote this instruction about how I put together this unit to help anyone who has to take care of senior people.
