SOLUTIONS TO MASTER THE DEMOGRAPHIC CHANGE AMBI...

How will the Western World manage to master the implications of the demographic change? The
answer to this may be Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) that becomes the topic of this research
study. The aim of the research is to present the field of AAL with relation to home care.
Furthermore  the work of the European Union (EU) in the field of AAL is presented as the EU is
a major key player in enhancing research on AAL solutions that help meeting the demands of the
future. Moreover  a categorization scheme of AAL solutions is developed through research
evidence. Additionally  characteristics of a successful innovation given by the Diffusion of
Innovations theory by E. M. Rogers are used to identify challenges for the diffusion process of
AAL. Eventually  knowledge and evidence from the research conducted is used to give
recommendations for the future concerning the diffusion and research directions of AAL.
