Abstract

In this paper, we focus on ICTs for young people attending occu pational rehabilitation and training. An important goal is to develop ICTs that decrease the need for reading and writing dramatically. The UNIMOD-proto type demonstrates how mobile phones can be used as the main and only ICT-device by truck drivers who deliver mats from the laundry to a large number of companies and public places. The mobile phone can be used in the truck for navigation according to traffic situation and geography, and for handling the cus tomer and delivery information. The test sessions show that mobile phones of fer an excellent point of departure for the development of simple and intuitive services that support users with cognitive declines.
