“…They provide extensive data-collecting capabilities to help with gait analysis [9]. Devices designed for consumers of health, such as wrist-worn activity trackers like Fitbit, as well as mobile phone applications and add-ons, are included in the second category [10]. These consumer-focused gadgets provide people with the ability to keep an eye on their own walking patterns.…”

The constant monitoring of human physical activity, behaviour, and physiological signs has undergone a revolution thanks to wearable technology, which has provided invaluable insights into many facets of everyday life. Wearable technology has become a potent instrument for improving healthcare efficiency and lowering costs as the prevalence of an ageing population and the need for technology-assisted care increase. By analysing gait patterns and promoting a healthy lifestyle in age-friendly settings, this study aims to investigate how valid and trustworthy wearable devices, in conjunction with technology-assisted care, can facilitate the monitoring and improvement of the health of the elderly population. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) 2020 standards for data inclusion and exclusion are used in the study, which collects data from the Scopus database. The results show that wearable technology, which offers two main device categories—those intended for healthcare professionals and those aimed at consumers—plays a critical role in gait-pattern analysis. These gadgets offer robust data-collecting capabilities, allowing for precise evaluation and tracking of walking habits. Furthermore, the incorporation of wearable technology with eHealth solutions enhances the quality of life for the aged population by enabling them to live in settings that are age-friendly and successfully manage their health. The study also emphasises how critical it is to use reliable wearable technology to address the diversity of health issues and the occurrence of chronic diseases among the senior population. According to the study’s findings, wearable technologies have great promise for promoting the health and well-being of senior citizens. To meet the unique requirements and problems of the ageing population and to guarantee the successful integration of wearable devices into healthcare practices, more research and development are needed. In the end, wearable technology has enormous potential to revolutionise aged care and enhance health outcomes in ageing-friendly settings.
