Abstract
The elderly represent a valid group of users who can
potentially benefit greatly from engaging with
technology, such as healthcare systems or playing
digital games. Yet, less attention has been given to the
significance of senior citizens as technology users, as
compared to the common younger population. In an
effort to fill in the gap, this workshop aims to
investigate the design of technology for senior citizens.
To provide for more focused, thus more productive
discussion in this paper, we will use elderly mobile
phone games as a case in point. The overarching
objective is to understand what can help to make for
better and more meaningful use of interactive
applications and technology by the elderly, for instance,
games on the mobile phone.
