eSenior is about developing and testing new products and services that can ensure older people to a functioning life in their own homes. The partnership will obtain and compile knowledge and experience from the participating regions in a report, and they will also analyze other projects with a similar focus . The report should clearly highlight what the needs are and what has already been implemented in the field. The project will also be the starting point for product pilots and the display environments that will be tested out. The project will test a number of ICT solutions in seniors' homes. The solutions will vary, but there is great emphasis on testing the same solution on a large number of pilots. The testing will involve business users and caretaking staff in the municipalities to ensure good quality and durability. Display environments will be a meeting place for companies to showcase their products to a larger mass.
