The scope and future trends of gerontechnology: consumers’ opinions and literature survey

This paper reviews the advances in gerontechnology and describes determinants of interest levels in new technologies among older persons and their caregivers. The first section presents a literature review of new technologies. We then examine the result of two focus groups we conducted on technology, one with elderly people living in an independent living apartment building, and one with caregivers in a special care unit.
