System of systems approach and user-centered design to improve the autonomy of people with reduced mobility

In this paper, we propose a methodology for the integrated design of modular technological breakthroughs allowing to improve the autonomy of persons with reduced mobility. Starting from the user-centered design of modules responding to a functional need of a person with reduced mobility, advanced interaction applications are proposed depending on the acceptability by the person of the developed modules. The integral solution is conceptualized by a system of systems approach. An example of application is proposed to illustrate the relevance of the proposed design approach.
