Here is our team brainstorm for the general characteristics of elderly people. Some may be incorrect stereotypes, however, must be taken into consideration when creating product ideas. Old people are definately the way forward it seems. We have created more characteristics for them than for young people, which means when it comes to product ideas we will have more directions to choose from. I have also had more experience with the elderly than with the young. What does everyone else think?Tris - I also think using the elderly as our domain is a good idea. As the product should be user-centered, it would be a lot easier to get in contact with them and interview them than children.
