Usability assessment of SmartBEAT: tests with users

img_8992

Fraunhofer AICOS’ SmartBEAT was tested by a group of users from our user network COLABORAR.

The user-friendly interfaces were used by seniors and pre-seniors at the Living Lab. Researchers conducted observation evaluations of participants. The tasks included performing measures of vital signs, responding to questionnaires and managing timely reminders of medication.

This study was very important, as researchers could understand if there are any issue to improve in what concerns to usability and user experience.
