Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) will address the needs of Europe's ageing population, reducing innovation barriers of forthcoming promising markets, and lowering future social security costs.

AAL aims - through the use of intelligent products and the provision of remote services including care services - to extend the time older people can live in their home environment by increasing their autonomy and assisting them in carrying out activities of daily living.
Through funding of applied research and innovation projects, with emphasis on integration of the required technologies and exploring new ways for the inclusion of user needs into relevant products and services, AAL aims to reinforce a consolidated European market for AAL products, environments and services.
