This week, some of our members are meeting in Gouda to continue with our work on the development of guidelines on the design and development of trustworthy video- and audio-based monitoring systems for active assisted living. #AAL #ethics . @COSTprogramme

Recommendation #36 - Promote the development of technical tools to obfuscate bystanders (e.g., #ComputerVision techniques to obscure a bystander’s #identity when #consent has not been provided). Read more recommendations in our position paper at #AAL

Recommendation #35 - Promote replacing #AAL's binary and one-time #consent model with adaptable, progressive systems, and collaborate on developing #innovative consent tools. Read more recommendations in our position paper at #DataPrivacy #Transparency

Recommendation #34 - Highlight the ongoing need for #security measures with #pseudonymised or #anonymised #data, recognising that these are not one-time processes. Read more recommendations in our position paper at #gdpr #digitalhealth

Recommendation #33 - Recommend regulator-approved methods for controllers to assess re-identification risks after data anonymisation or pseudonymisation. Read more recommendations in our position paper at #gdpr #privacy #dataprotection #AAL

Recommendation #32 - Provide clear guidance on distinguishing between the distinct categories of #data – a complex and legally uncertain task for #AAL technology developers. Read more recommendations in our position paper at #Legal #LegalTech

Recommendation #31 - Provide more research #funding to support the development of innovative #security and #privacy by designing solutions to complex #legal issues. Read more recommendations in our position paper at #AAL #digitalhealth

Recommendation #30 - Create formal #guidelines to simplify #legal interpretation for #AAL #technology developers and encourage #GDPR-compliant technologies integrated into products and services. Read more recommendations in our position paper at

Recommendation #29 - Promote public awareness of the #gdpr so that individuals understand and invoke their rights. Older and frailer individuals should be seen as an important target group. Read more recommendations in our position paper at #AAL

Recommendation #28 - Ensure that laws are written so they can be translated into a machine-readable format and can easily be embedded into system design at the start of development. Read more recommendations in our position paper at . #AAL #legal
