The “Helping elders to live an active and socially connected life by involving them in the digital society” project addresses the objectives of the call by offering a 360 degree user involvement methodology to examine how a new approach towards digital technologies can be harnessed to support the involvement of elderly people in digital society. The proposal intends to synthesise the skills, experience and knowledge of the consortium members in developing a state-of-the-art platform and service package backed with feasible business models which supports the on time and on budget realisation and market introduction of the call objectives.
The project focuses on providing an enriched communication experience, anywhere, anytime and to any device with accessible, intuitive, easy to use, multi-modal User Interfaces. We believe that the right service and the right content is only accepted by the end users if it is delivered on the right device, one that they are used to. This can be a tablet, the screen of the television, mobile phones, etc.
