Taiwan has officially entered a super-aged society, with an increasing demand for elderly care. According to projections by the National Development Council, by 2025, the population aged 65 and older in Taiwan will exceed 20%, with more than 30% of seniors at risk of cognitive decline. A study by IEK Research indicates that the global assistive device market was valued at approximately $41 billion in 2018 and is expected to grow to $57.1 billion by 2025, with a compound annual growth rate of 4.8%. While North America and Europe currently dominate the smart medical assistive device market, Asia is experiencing the fastest growth.
Innolux Corporation has partnered with LTPA Solution to develop the 85-inch "TAKA Smart Touch Table," leveraging digital technology to help seniors maintain cognitive function and social engagement. This innovative product was honored today at the Taiwan Assistive Devices & Long-Term Care Exhibition, receiving the 2025 Taiwan Long-Term Care Rental Assistive Device Excellence Award in the "Wellness & Rehabilitation" category. James Yang, President of Innolux, emphasized that the key to smart assistive technology innovation is enabling seniors to engage their minds, hands, and entire bodies through technology.
Innolux's 85-inch 4K anti-reflective Smart Touch Table is designed with cutting-edge display technology, offering low reflection, high contrast, and a comfortable viewing experience with minimal eye strain. The multi-touch table accommodates 4-6 users simultaneously and comes preloaded with interactive games targeting cognitive skills such as reaction speed, memory, logical thinking, and concentration, making it specifically designed for dementia training. Additionally, it integrates a personalized cognitive assessment scale developed by LTPA Solution, enabling the collection of quantifiable and trackable cognitive training data for seniors, providing professional care institutions with a more precise management tool.
The product has already been successfully implemented in Show Chwan Healthcare System and several day-care centers, with results showing a 30% increase in senior engagement. After six months of interactive touch training, some seniors with mild cognitive impairment demonstrated significant improvements in hand-eye coordination and short-term memory tests. These findings highlight the role of smart assistive technology in enhancing the digital transformation of elderly care facilities and day-care centers.
The Taiwan Assistive Devices & Long-Term Care Exhibition is the largest international event of its kind in Taiwan, showcasing hardware and software solutions tailored to elderly care needs. It also plays a crucial role in advancing smart technology applications in eldercare. Innolux remains committed to integrating cutting-edge technology into the long-term care sector, driving the value of precision elderly care, and ensuring that every senior receives the best possible care at the right time.nd ensuring that every senior receives the best possible care at the right time.
