D3.5. Advancing the use of visual systems to support older adults managing multiple chronic health conditions (Update)

This deliverable provides a final update on research into camera-based technologies that support older adults living at home with multiple chronic conditions. It builds on earlier work (D3.4) and focuses on three main areas. First, it finalises research by ESR 8 on using behaviour change theory to improve the design and uptake of these technologies, particularly how to encourage older adults to accept and benefit from visual systems for managing multimorbidity. Second, it includes findings from ESR 17 (who replaced ESR 7) on healthcare professionals’ views about using camera systems in telehealth, based on a scoping review of real-life settings. Third, it brings together results from both ESRs 8 and 17 on how users perceive privacy, data protection, and ethical concerns, offering insights for future development and deployment of camera-based AAL tools. The report is currently under a one-year embargo to protect unpublished findings, and it will be publicly available from 1 March 2026.
