VERITAS kick-off meeting
MCA participated in the first VERITAS meeting, hosted by the Coordinator FhG/IAO Fraunhofer Gesellschaft Institute in Stuttgart (Germany) on 11-12 January 2010.
VERITAS aims at developing, validating and assessing an open framework for built-in accessibility at all stages of ICT and non-ICT product development. The goal is to introduce simulation-based and virtual reality testing at all stages of product design and development into the automotive, smart living spaces, workplaces, infotainment and personal healthcare applications areas. This is intended to ensure that future products and services will be systematically designed for all people, including older people and people with disabilities and functional limitations.
