PhysAgeNet is a EU COST Action which undertakes coordinated research collaboration at European level. Its aim is to to establish a sustainable network that will foster evidence-based research and practice of physical activity in older adults and will enhance integration of innovative ICT solutions based on open data consolidated research information, in order to promote … Continue reading PhysAgeNet
The use of robots in the care sector is a frequently discussed future scenario that brings up different expectations. The percentage of older people will increase significantly in the future. On one hand, there is hope that robots could support humans in living an independent life in their familiar surroundings until old age. On the … Continue reading CaringRobots/RoboticCare
Description Human behavioral analysis applications in the fields of ambient assisted living (AAL) and human security monitoring require continuous video analysis of individuals. Although intelligent systems deployed in these areas are intended to have a positive impact on the persons involved, subsequent continuous monitoring naturally raises ethical concerns and questions about privacy implications. To address these … Continue reading MIPT Dataset
