Abstract:
A purpose behind the United Nation’s Agenda 2030 is that no one shall be left behind, which implies that support for vulnerable people shall be seen as clearly significant. In that context, assistive technologies serve purposes of improving disabled individuals’ inclusiveness, and overall well-being. This contribution covers ongoing experiments on techniques developed for Smart Homes, where the outcome of such developments are targeted towards young people’s, with functional disabilities, independence in their own living.
