Research design and methods: Three focus group sessions were conducted within this pilot study to assess older adults’ perceptions of the technology and ways they believe technology can improve their daily lives. Themes discussed in these groups included participants’ perceptions of the usefulness of devices and sensors in health-related issues such as preventing or detecting falls, assisting with visual or hearing impairments, improving mobility, reducing isolation, managing medications, and monitoring of physiological parameters. The audiotapes were transcribed and a content analysis was performed.
