Abstract

This contribution addresses the development of technology for senior users with the aim to improve their general wellbeing. We present a prototype system named CARE that is used for in-situ testing in a senior's home and combines functionality of a digital image frame with an active recommender mode. The purpose of the recommender is to provide the user with context-specific recommendations. Recommendations are chosen on the basis of sensor data and a well-being model to carefully decide on at which point in time what kind of activity will be most suitable to suggest.
