Ambient Assisted Living for an Ageing Society: a Technological Overview
نویسندگان
چکیده
The rise in the average age and the decrease in the rate of births, cause the phenomenon called population ageing, which rises a number of issues. The oncoming shortage of caregivers and the strong desire of the older adults to live in their own homes originated an increasing interest in Ambient Assisted Living (AAL). AAL encompasses technical systems to support people in their daily routines. The paper focuses on the technological aspects of AAL systems describing the capabilities they require and how they are being addressed.
