Kurzfassung: | The smart home, ambient intelligence and ambient assisted living have
been intensively researched for decades. Although rural areas are an
important potential market, because they represent about 80% of the
territory of the EU countries and around 125 million inhabitants, there
is currently a lack of applicable AAL solutions. This paper discusses
the theoretical foundations of AAL in rural areas. This discussion is
underlined by the achievements of the empirical field study, Casa
Vecchia, which has been carried out over a four-year period in a rural
area in Austria. The major goal of Casa Vecchia was to evaluate the
feasibility of a specific form of AAL for rural areas: bringing AAL
technology to the homes of the elderly, rather than moving seniors to
special-equipped care facilities. The Casa Vecchia project thoroughly
investigated the possibilities, challenges and drawbacks of AAL related
to this specific approach. The findings are promising and somewhat
surprising and indicate that further technical, interactional and
socio-psychological research is required to make AAL in rural areas
reasonable in the future.
