Abstract

My work aims to contribute to the development of home care reminder systems through the development of dynamic multimodal notification technology, able to select a notification modality based on user, environmental and message factors such as sensory impairment and social context. This work involves (1) investigating different properties of notification modalities, (2) establishing guidelines for their use as notifications in the home, (3) creating a prototype dynamic multimodal home reminder system and (4) evaluating it in home trials. At present, work on part two is being completed and preparations have begun for the third part of this research.
