Aging employees in modern working environments require compensation of their decreasing fitness and cognitive abilities. Ambient Assisted Working (AAW) based on modern information technology can offer potentials to cope with the upcoming demographic change. The project EUNA aims at figuring out the potential contribution of wearable computing components to enable social and economic participation of aging employees. Focus of the project is on production oriented branches and logistics oriented service providers. The project activities include an empirical investigation of AAW to establish the status quo and future development of the topic within production and logistics as well as identifying new application areas.
