Acceptance of Selected Applications of Ambient Assisted Living in the Project A~2LICE

摘要

Germany, in particular the state of Saxony, has one of the oldest average populations in the world. The impact of demographic and social changes has led to large challenges. The process of population aging combined with changing family structures has led to a large increase of needy and dependent people and this trend is likely to continue. Germany is strenuously seeking to find suitable solutions to manage this problem. The financial viability and future quality of healthcare will continue to play a crucial role. This paper is intended to present an overview of the project A~2LICE (Ambient Assisted Living in Intelligent Controlled Environments) and depicts the first results of acceptance research with elderly people.
