Inhaltsangabe

Many of the contributors were also part of the Friendly Rest Room research project conducted in 2002-05 and funded by the European Union as part of a larger project on quality of life for aging and disabled people. One section assesses how that project was conducted, and another presents case studies from it. Other sections cover general, organizational, and developmental issues; aspects of human-product interaction in the toilet environment; and design for improved toilet environments. Among the topics are experiences with smart homes for older people, shaping the ethical peer review and guidance in the Friendly Rest Room Project, the rapid prototyping of interface and control software for an intelligent toilet, laboratory tests of an adjustable toilet system with integrated sensors for enhancing autonomy and safety, and squatting for health and hygiene.
