Abstract:
In this paper we present work in progress in the Assisted Living Project – responsible innovations for dignified lives at home for people with mild cognitive impairment or dementia. The project has a distinctly interdisciplinary approach and engages experts in nursing and occupational therapy, in ethics and responsible research and innovation, and in technology, in particular automation and machine learning. Our approach is to involve the end-users, their family and their care providers and develop technology responsibly together with them. The technological approach employs self-learning systems to develop solutions that provide individualised support in accordance with the user’s values, choices, and preferences. The paper presents our approach, current findings and future plans.
