The fall prevention in the elderly population is a field of growing interest. This paper presents the preliminary results of a fall prevention system based on a customized exergame program. Results show that the participants involved in the experiments evaluate positively the system usability. Moreover, in order to evaluate the efficiency of the system, a global improvement of around 8.8% has been observed in the postural response after just two sessions with the system.

This paper presents an approach to the evaluation of Quality of Context (QoC) parameters in a ubiquitous Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) e-Health platform, supporting the care of people with special needs (elderly or with health problems) thus improving their quality of life. The proposal is initially verified with the Siafu simulator in an AAL scenario where the user’s health is monitored with information about blood pressure and body temperature. The research proceeded with the use of IoT technology, the e-Health Sensor Platform, a differentiated real environment.

In the concept of the hearing loss awareness, a modern mobile-web platform is hereby presented, aiming to offer constant online access to individuals who are hard of hearing, while presenting them regularly updated information concerning their condition. This information is presented via a specific modified interface, taking into account the special needs of the specific community. After a thorough research in GUI, the software requirements substitute or supplement the lack of integrated sound systems, with visual modifications, caption text and even specially chosen colours.
