b) a conversational agent as an everyday intermediary between the older person, family, friends and other members of their circles of care
c) personal mHealth apps, and eHealth monitors and devices.
SINTEF contribute to the development of a method for user involvement in the design of technology for the elderly (gerontechnology) and lead the development of a digital assistant:
- The method will ensure that the e-health solutions that are designed to take care of older people's own perspectives on their life situations and problems, while at the same time the technologies get the very best conditions for success in the market.
- The digital assistant will, with the help of AI / ML and multimodal interaction, support older people living with complex and varied challenges such as cognitive impairment or chronic lung disease.
