GUIDE Project
This group is dedicated to all stakeholders and interested followers of the European research project GUIDE (
http://www.guide-project.eu).
GUIDE ("Gentle user interfaces for elderly people") is developing a software framework and tools which allow developers to efficiently integrate accessibility features into their applications. GUIDE puts a dedicated focus on the emerging Hybrid TV platforms and services (Connected TVs, Set-Top Boxes, etc.), including application platforms as HbbTV as well as proprietary middleware solutions of TV manufacturers. These platforms have the potential to become the main media terminals in the users’ homes, due to their convenience and wide acceptance. Especially for users of the elderly society applications such as home automation, audio-visual communication or continuing education can help to simplify their daily life, stay connected in their social network and enhance their understanding of the world.
The research project is partly funded by the European Commission under the Seventh (FP7 - 2007-2013) Framework Programme for Research and Technological Development.
