Abstract
Colombia is experiencing an important demographic growing trend, where the aging phenomena is more evident between the current populations. Most of the elders are affected by social situations. In addition, a lack of Telecare technology to support caring processes is exposed. In order to explore the introduction of Telecare approaches for elders in Colombia, a software prototype for a real low-SES Seniors Living Facility was developed. The main contribution of this work is the application of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) [8] principles and user-centered design (UCD) practices to formulate an Android software application for elders, taking into account all the challenges at this level of interaction, the kind of population under certain scenarios in Colombia, and also the creation of positive perceptions of the final software considering aspects of emotions, reliability of service and optimal user experience [4].
