Summary

In this chapter, a possible outlook into the future is provided. Considering the newest technology on the market in the young research field of AAL (see Chapter 4), and the youngest research projects (see Chapter 5), new possibilities will exist in the future design of buildings. Buildings mainly consist of four walls and a ceiling, with water and electrical supply. However, with increasing demand for assistive technologies, and with an increasing technology readiness level (TRL) [187] for assistive technologies, there will be a time when this new technology approach will fuse with future building design and construction.
