Abstract
With this research-through-design process we aim to provide methods that will increase the chance of societal and commercial adoption of smart textile applications for eldercare and rehabilitation. These methods will show how designers can guide the collaboration between companies from the textile and technology industry, and eldercare service providers. We will illustrate the research goal with examples from the Smart Textile Services CRISP project and will discuss further plans of this PhD research.
