“…The virtual coach provides personalised tasks that could be carried out to maintain or improve the well-being in the different domains. The NESTORE platform has been co-designed with older adults from four European countries [54]. Also, this process allowed the research team to identify the need to integrate the suggested coaching activities into the existing daily routines.…”

A number of experiences have demonstrated how digital solutions are effective in improving quality of life (QoL) and health outcomes for older adults. Smart Health Age-Friendly Environments (SHAFE) is a new concept introduced in Europe since 2017 that combines the concept of Age-Friendly Environments with Information Technologies, supported by health and community care to improve the health and disease management of older adults and during the life-course. This chapter aims to provide an initial overview of the experiences available not only in Europe, based on the research work of the participants of the International Interdisciplinary Network on Health and Well-being in an Age-Friendly Digital World (NET4Age-Friendly), which could be of interest to preventive, health and social authorities. The chapter reports good practices, pain points, and bottlenecks that may require a collaborative, interdisciplinary research approach to facilitate the transformations towards smart, sustainable, health and age-friendly cities and communities.

IntroductionThe use of multiple interfaces may improve the perception of a stronger relationship between a conversational virtual coach and older adults. The purpose of this paper is to show the effect of output combinations [single-interface (chatbot, tangible coach), multi-interface (assignment, redundant-complementary)] of two distinct conversational agent interfaces (chatbot and tangible coach) on the eCoach-user relationship (closeness, commitment, complementarity) and the older adults' feeling of social presence of the eCoach.MethodsOur study was conducted with two different study settings: an online web survey and a face to face experiment.ResultsOur online study with 59 seniors shows that the output modes in multi-interface redundant-complementary manner significantly improves the eCoach-user relationship and social presence of the eCoach compared to only using single-interfaces outputs. Whereas in our face to face experiment with 15 seniors, significant results were found only in terms of higher social presence of multi-interface redundant complementary manner compared to chatbot only.DiscussionWe also investigated the effect of each study design on our results, using both quantitative and qualitative methods.

“…Furthermore, we conducted experiments with frail MCI older adults to evaluate the effectiveness of mobile and e-health services, providing valuable insights into the practical applications of such technologies in real-life scenarios [15]. These aspects have been taken into account in the design of the NESTORE e-Coach [16], a multi-domain pathway to well-being in older age. This comprehensive system integrates various aspects, including physical, cognitive, social, and nutritional dimensions, to deliver personalized coaching interventions for older adults.…”

The rapid increase in the aging population has brought about the need for new solutions in healthcare. Intelligent environments offer a promising approach for promoting longevity and active aging through the use of technology solutions. In this paper, following the author’s journey in the field, we explore the role of intelligent environments in revolutionizing healthcare, and we discuss their potential to enhance the quality of life for older adults. We also provide an overview of some of the key technological solutions that are being developed to support intelligent environments for longevity and active aging.
