Abstract This study tried to estimate potential of new ubiquitous technology in housing by observing its services and characteristics and looking into the characteristics of the state u-City that government is looking into. For the research, the researchers identified what the characteristics of senior housing are by analyzing some cases. We will analyze two subjects: the characteristics of home network facilities experimented by 'smart home industrialization support center' which is designated by the Ministry of Knowledge Economy and run by Kookmin University and of what services can be applied to u-City's senior residence. Based on those analyses and the results of the research, we'll plan a senior residence that has the characteristics of ubiquitous services. Through this study, we realize the fact that applying ubiquitous service to senior residence improves the efficiency of existing services offered by senior residence, boosting the safety and stability of the seniors' living.
