Abstract
The development of supporting technology often neglects real challenges for a self-determined lifestyle, especially in age. The objective of the contribution is to explain the KPB-methodology, which was developed in a project founded by the German Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF). This methodology allows capturing needs and problem situations of elderly people in their domestic environment. Implications for product development will be explained. With the project, we answered the question, which problems elderly people have to deal with for a self-determined life. We investigated the life situation based on socio-scientific methods and translated it into technical requirements.
