Abstract

Having a sense of purpose is one of the tenets of well-being, at any age. Here, the authors review technologies that could help older adults remain active in society - in particular, those who can't leave their home regularly or easily. The authors also discuss areas that current research and practice haven't yet addressed satisfactorily.
