VISUAAL project: bridging the knowledge gap between users’ requirements and use of video-based AAL technologies

Kick-off meeting for AAATE on 20 September participating in VisuAAL, a project on video-based technologies and services for active and assisted living. The project runs on a great consortium led by the University of Alicante. The aim of VISUAAL is to bridge the knowledge gap between users’ requirements and the appropriate and secure use of video-based AAL technologies to deliver effective and supportive care to older adults managing their health and wellbeing. VISUAAL will seek to increase awareness and understanding of the context-specific ethical, legal, privacy and societal issues necessary to implement visual system across hospital, home and community settings, in a manner that protects and reassures users; outputs will stimulate the development of a new research perspective for constructively addressing privacy-aware video-based working solutions for assisted living.
