The book presents the state of the art of the Internet of Things
(IoT), applied to Human-Centered Design (HCD) projects addressed to
ageing users, from the perspective of health, care and well-being.
The current focus on the ageing population is opening up new
opportunities for the development of niche solutions aimed at the
niche category of older users who are beginning to experience
physical and cognitive decline but are still independent and need
to maintain their autonomy for as long as possible. The combination
between the needs expressed by older users and the opportunities
offered by the recent innovative technologies related to the
Internet of Things allows research institutions, stakeholders, and
academia to target and design new solutions for older users,
safeguarding their well-being, health, and care, improving their
quality of life. This book discusses and analyses the most recent
services, products, systems and environments specifically conceived
for older users, in order to enhance health, care, well-being and
improve their quality of life. This approach is coherent with the
percept of AAL or enhanced living environment, looking to the
users' comfort, autonomy, engagement and healthcare. The book
describes and analyses aspects of HCD with older users looking to
the emerging technologies, products, services, and environments
analysed in their actual application in different areas, always
concerning the design for the elderly related to the IoT, just as
the development of biomonitoring devices, tools for activity
recognition and simulation, creation of smart living environments,
solutions for their autonomy, assistance and engagement enhancing
health, care and wellbeing. The book is intended for researchers,
designers, engineers, and practitioners in healthcare to connect
academia, stakeholders, and research institutions to foster
education, research and innovation.
