Smart Housing for Smart Aging
Studies show that the coming generation of older adults prefer flexible living spaces where they have on-going contacts with younger people. Independent, yet interdependent. Consumer trend studies show that we all favor personalized solutions, and we view wifi service as vital as electricity and water supply.
To help age-targeted housing providers and designers to reshape aging in place, senior living, and care delivery, Elders Together consultants are here. Now’s the time to build your XR business strategy to address changing preferences and facility conversions.
Let’s plan your spatial computing strategy to make positive impact across your communities, teams, and operations.

Equip “Solo Agers” the smart way
More and more older adults live alone; they can facilitate social connection, agency, autonomy, and privacy by mapping out uses for smart voice assistants that ensure privacy and accessibility, and provide impactful content and tools. For space planning, XR tools help you design environments that are accessible, navigable, safe, and appealing, and that facilitate care delivery and social interaction.

Design assisted living environments for the 21st century
Most older adults are functional and independent. Yet a growing percentage of people over 65 will develop cognitive impairment requiring community support. Immersive and smart tech will facilitate rapid iteration of custom housing designs and home modifications when the need arises.
XR in facility design and conversions is proven to improve results across the board. We’ve helped designers and builders leverage simulation and visualization since 1996.
Motivate and inspire smooth transitions to care
Leverage simulations and immersive video to introduce anyone, everywhere to novel environments and processes. Families and staff can benefit, too. Experience the positive impact of spatial transformation in support of managing change.

Your custom digital twin: Cut costs and increase engagement
Creating your facility‘s digital simulation to use for facility design and space planning and for myriad areas of the aging services organization, can improve results in staff recruitment, training, and emergency response preparation, and to finesse virtual tours and move-in planning.
“…Virtual-reality and augmented-reality experiences are poised to reshape our lives in the coming decade, with innovation driving advancements across enterprise and consumer use cases. Recently, we have seen growth in B2B applications of immersive-reality technologies such as spatial computing— specifically digital twins gaining traction for training, testing, and design…. On the consumer side, virtual- and augmented-reality experiences are reshaping consumer engagement….”
