The goal of GoodBrother is to raise awareness of the ethical, legal and privacy issues associated with audio and video-based monitoring and to propose confidential working solutions for assisted living , by creating an interdisciplinary community of researchers and industry partners in various fields. (computer science, engineering, healthcare, law, sociology) and other stakeholders (users, decision makers, public services), stimulating new research and innovation. GoodBrother will offset the "Big Brother" sense of continuous monitoring by increasing user acceptance, leveraging these new solutions and improving market coverage.
