The development of AgeTech is crucial for improving the quality of life of older people, but it may also bring negative consequences and ethical challenges.
The global rise of populations of older people is associated with increased development of technology designed for older people. Technological solutions play an increasing role in improving the health, well-being, independence, and quality of life of older people across home, community, and service arenas. This paper will reference the psychological, social and health benefits that as well as unintended negative consequences AgeTech can bring to the person, communities, institutions, and society while highlighting some of the key ethical challenges in this emerging sector.
