Abstract
Within the framework of the H2020 IN LIFE project we have designed and developed two ICT services related to independent living and travel that support home activities, communication, mobility and socialization. A brief overview of the Spanish pilot, in which these solutions will be tested, is presented describing the inclusion and exclusion criteria, use cases, actors, as well as the services that will be tested. The manuscript also presents the description of functionalities and characteristics of the developed ICT services.
