城市老年科技的机遇与挑战:从自动化城市到老年友好型城市

Opportunities and Challenges of Urban Agetech: from an Automated City to an Ageing-Friendly City

Seng W. Loke

AI总结:

本文提出城市老年科技概念,主张将家庭外老年科技服务及机器人、自动驾驶车辆等自动化支持纳入现代老年友好型城市的常规功能。

摘要:

照顾老年人、就地养老以及使老年人能够维持良好生活,继续成为日益重要的议题,尤其是在老年人口比例较高的国家,因为人们寿命更长,而护理成本不断上升。本立场论文提出城市老年科技(urban agetech)的概念,即家庭之外的老年科技服务可成为现代老年友好型城市不可或缺的组成部分;在需要之处,以自动化系统(例如机器人和自动驾驶车辆)形式为老年人提供的支持,将成为一项常规城市功能/服务,类似于当今相当普遍的公共交通服务。

英文摘要:

Caring for the elderly, aging-in-place, and enabling the elderly to maintain a good life continue to be topics of increasing importance, especially in countries with a higher percentage of older people, as people live longer, and care-giving costs rise. This position paper proposes the concept of urban agetech, where agetech services beyond the home can be an integral part of a modern ageing-friendly city, and where support for the elderly, where needed, in the form of automated systems (e.g., robots and automated vehicles) would be a normal city function/service, akin to the rather commonplace public transport services today.
