Living lab methods and tools for fostering everyday life innovation

The Defining Characteristics of Urban Living Labs

“…There are a number of activities that are supposed to take place in living labs. Living labs should comprise the development of a product, which can be all sorts of artifacts, including process innovations, and not only, for example, testing or implementation (Budweg et al, 2011;Coenen et al, 2014;Feurstein et al, 2008;Gray et al, 2014;Leminen, 2015;Schaffers et al, 2007;Tang & Hämäläinen, 2012). A key element in this development process is co-creation (Bijsterveldt, 2016;ENoLL, 2016;Feurstein et al, 2008;Franz et al, 2015;Gómez-Barroso et al, 2009;Heijden, 2016;Schaub, 2016).…”

Everyday Life Sensing by Living Lab Approach

“…From methodology's perspective, LL is a mixed or multi-disciplinary approach, which combines the traditional research methods and emerging research methods as shown in Figure 1 [17]. The horizontal axis is the two components of LL, namely the laboratory part (more control) and the living part (less control).…”
