Wh t i d i ?What is our domain?


AAL can be any of these elements, but

Ambient Assisted Living is about research on technologies and

is preferably the sum of it

technology-enabled services in order to support independend living of i.e. elderly people

Challenges we face

Supply Side

Technology provider:Technology provider:Numerous products in the market, but most tend to cover their own and specific technology stack , e.g. in-house emergency call(sensor + proprietary software + specific interfaces)(sensor + proprietary software + specific interfaces)

Solution provider:Solutions are typically closed end-to-end approaches marketed bySolutions are typically closed end to end approaches marketed by few traditional providers, but also some innovative start-ups.Solutions would greatly benefit, if players from different domains would be attracted to this difficult field with high barriers to entry

At a glance:

To come up with solutions that really can fulfill long-term market needsTo come up with solutions that really can fulfill long term market needs, they must be customizable/ adaptable

… if you want to customize solutions, systemic approaches that integrate il d d i isilos are deemed promising.

specialized providers (adoption of business focus and model).… integrated solutions can be developed,

Idea of Living Labs

Living Labs build a common ground for collaborative work of • technology providers and• solution architects togetherg• with domain experts and• customers

All parties profit from an open research environment …

where additional services (e.g. standardization, consulting, integration support, evaluation support, …) might be offered to the i lsingle groups.
