Life methodological handbook for agile cocreation of robotics solutions for ageing

This handbook describes the LIFE Agile Cocreation Methodology produced by the ACCRA Consortium for the development of socially assisted robots dedicated to the elderlies with a loss of autonomy, in the European H2020 program. The goal of the LIFE methodology is to bring together robotics developers, engineers, stakeholders and end-users to cocreate robotics solutions that are more meaningful to end-users, in particular on specific targets such as the elderly. The originality of this methodology is that it seeks to bring together two very different entities: robotics and the elderly with a loss of autonomy. The central axis of this agile cocreation methodology is to position the elderly user at the very heart of the development of robotic solutions.
