Important results from the project
The goal of the project was to develop and test a prototype of our solution together with end users, municipality and healthcare providers. The goal was achieved by arranging workshops, conducting tests, prototype development and collecting survey responses from both healthcare providers, municipalities and end users. The project has contributed to the development of prototypes that are well adapted to end users. It has also improved our understanding of how our product can be used in everyday life and replace car journeys.
Expected long term effects
The project has resulted in a prototype that is well adapted to the end users´ needs and requirements. Tests and surveys show that the product has potential to replace car journeys and also increase the physical activity of end users.
