| Rationale The motivation for this session is the potential for significant economic and social impact from the introduction of innovative AAL solutions. While this potential has been recognized for some time, breakthroughs in terms of widespread availability and deployment of solutions have yet to be achieved. The AAL Joint Programme has funded activities in this area for some years, and some of these are now at a stage in their development where direct hands-on involvement of development companies is the best way to make sure that this work produces results that are effective and applicable in real industrial settings. Each presentation should provide information about on-going activities and discuss the form and content of possible market potentials. Additionally it should be shown how companies in practical experimentation with new technologies can be involved and how this work can influence to match their needs. Preliminary program | ||
