Abstract (Deutsch)

The ¿Helping elders to live an active and socially connected life by involving them in the digital society¿ project addresses the objectives of the AAL2 call by offering a 360 degree user involvement methodology to examine how a new approach towards emerging technologies can be harnessed to support the involvement of elderly people in the digital society. The project focuses on providing an enriched communication experience, anywhere, anytime and to any device with accessible, intuitive, easy to use, multimodal User Interfaces. The goal is to enable elderly people, their family and social surrounding to share their everyday experiences and help them make use of existing and currently developed multimedia services to generate the sense of closeness and community belonging they are searching for.
