Abstract This goal is pursued by covering all major technologies used in the field, including but not limited to smart homes, environmental and wearable sensors, visual monitoring, information fusion, standards and interoperability, reasoning systems and person-environment interaction. On the other hand, AAL applications are important also to healthcare professionals and caregivers. In this part, the book has reviewed tele-care and tele-health, as well as gait analysis, fall detection, support of ADLs, outdoor and indoor mobility, well-being and social interaction and decision support systems. Finally, associated issues such as accessibility, privacy and human-centred design; and study cases for smart cities and smart homes are presented. In this sense, this book gives a unified view of the significant amount of scientific fields that are emerging from and coming together in AAL. As such, it can provide not only a way of precise and direct initiation in the field, but it may also serve as reference for similar state-of-the-art reviews and retrospections in the future. Chapter Contents: • 22.1 Foreseeing the future of AAL • 22.2 What have we reached so far and what is next? • 22.3 Conclusion • References. © The Institution of Engineering and Technology 2016.
