Drawing upon the progressively evolving theoretical frameworks and methodologies for housing adaptation tailored to the needs of the elderly, this study explores the enhancement of age-friendly living spaces through the integration of smart home technologies. A novel, multidimensional framework is introduced, integrating the elements of "elderly individuals, living areas, functional spaces, and technologies," fostering a comprehensive application of technology in elderly care. This approach aims to scrutinize the seamless integration of technological advancements into the daily lives of the elderly from a multidisciplinary perspective. The study delves into the effectiveness and adaptation strategies of smart home systems across three pivotal scenarios: daily living, health monitoring, and safety measures. It underscores the pivotal role of smart home technologies in elevating the well-being of the elderly. By implementing sophisticated smart solutions, such as voice commands and streamlined operations, these technologies empower seniors to effortlessly manage lighting, climate control, and security systems within their living spaces, fostering a customized, intelligent living ambiance. This initiative not only propels the application of smart home systems in the lives of the elderly but also ensures a safer, more comfortable, and autonomous lifestyle.
