technology within a specific context
4. Why emerging tech matters
The Growth of Demand
Demographics
• Results show that ageing of the population
alone, with no alteration in the prevalence of
diseases or the age-specific rates of becoming
disabled or recovering, will result in a 67 per
cent increase in the numbers with disability
over the next 20 years.
• Numbers of the oldest old (those aged 85
years and over) with disability will have
doubled.
• Numbers experiencing one of the key diseases
considered will have increased by over 40 per
cent by 2025.
Behaviour
• Purchasing online from single source stores.
• The cultures and expectations of device app
store is different to traditional purchasing
of AT.
• Expectation of lower price point and
ownership.
• Expectation of on-demand services,
distribution and support
• Expectation of choice and control

58. Conclusion
• Emerging technologies offer new opportunities for
people with a disability, enhancing independence
and increasing choice
• Emerging technologies impact directly upon the
ways in which we deliver services, increasing reach
and reducing cost
• Emerging technologies change the relationship
between user and professional, increased autonomy
sits with the person with a disability.
