Area of Science:

  • Gerontology and Human-Computer Interaction
  • Assistive Technology Development
  • Digital Health and Aging

Background:

  • The global population is aging, increasing demand for care products and services.
  • Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) solutions support older adults' independence at home.
  • Limited user awareness and participatory design hinder AAL adoption.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the usability and user experience of the ActiveAdvice platform.
  • To assess the platform's effectiveness in providing AAL product and service information.
  • To gather user feedback for future AAL platform development.

Main Methods:

  • Usability testing with 32 older adults and informal carers across 4 European countries.
  • Analysis of web interface design, information flow, and architecture.
  • Collection of objective (task completion) and subjective (surveys, think-aloud) data.

Main Results:

  • ActiveAdvice aligns with user needs and expectations, demonstrating high interest.
  • Users found the platform's purpose clear and interaction simple and intuitive.
  • High task completion and satisfaction rates were observed, with recommendations for design and information improvements.

Conclusions:

  • Findings offer insights into interface design, information architecture, and user needs for AAL platforms.
  • Tools disseminating AAL solutions can enhance quality of life for older adults and caregivers.
  • Future AAL developments should incorporate user feedback for better adoption and impact.
