Abstract

This study examines the unintended consequences (UICs) and benefits of three smart home monitoring technologies for the elderly, utilizing a consequences framework for analysis. Insights gained can help to prevent negative outcomes, maximize benefits, and inform more effective implementation strategies. Preliminary findings reveal several UICs and benefits, with ongoing research to be presented in the final poster. Understanding the potential impact of these technologies is essential to ensure their safe implementation for elderly individuals.
