This 2nd semester project report, at the humanistic-technological bachelor’s degree, is a study in how to develop a set of “best practices” surrounding the selection and use of welfare technology meant to be used by elderly. The primary inspiration for defining these “best practices” is the concept of “pleasure” defined by Patrick W. Jordan. The report also includes welfare technology as a concept, methods for collecting qualitative empirical data through interviews, and methods related to the process model called Double Diamond. The robot vacuum cleaner has been the representative for the concept of welfare technology in the empirical work described in this report. The report makes use of the humanistic-technological dimensions called “Technology, systems &amp; artifacts” and “Subjectivity, technology &amp; society” as its sources of inspiration.This 2nd semester project report, at the humanistic-technological bachelor’s degree, is a study in how to develop a set of “best practices” surrounding the selection and use of welfare technology meant to be used by elderly.
