Abstract
Even when assistive technologies do support people with special needs and enabling them to retain an independent lifestyle, unforeseen thresholds may pop up and hinder people to become fully independent. Aiming to contribute to best practices in the field of independent living, a co-design case of support for a specific person with serious speech and movement impairments is reported. We describe the human-centered design trajectory, the developed support, and reflect on our experiences striving to develop computer programs that really help people with special needs in order to maintain independent living. © 2008 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
