Abstract
To get evidence about acceptance and usage of AAL solutions in real world, the accordant systems must be deployed outside of lab environments. We installed a TV and tablet-based interactive system in the homes of 23 older olds in need of care services to provide wellbeing inquiries, activation prompts, and various reminders. In
this article, we present challenges and lessons learnt from setting up ad hoc living labs for the evaluation of these care services in real homes. Implications reach from conducting extensive system tests in real world to intensive training and supervision for the participants during the study runtime.
