Abstract

This section explores AAL from a gerontological perspective, both in terms of the types of AAL systems and applications that have been developed for older users and the contributions that technology can make to their health, independence and quality of life. The six chapters are representative of the range of research and development activities focusing on meeting the needs of older people and are organized in three themes: monitoring activity and health; AAL and dementia; market and policy issues.
