Abstract
The global population is aging, and with this demographic shift comes the growing need for assistive technologies that can enhance the quality of life for elderly individuals. Biomedical engineering plays a key role in developing innovative solutions that address the unique challenges faced by aging populations, such as mobility impairments, cognitive decline, and chronic health conditions. This article explores the impact of biomedical engineering in the field of elderly care, focusing on assistive technologies designed to support aging individuals and improve their independence, safety, and overall well-being.
