A significant amount of research has been conducted regarding the design of Internet applications for the elderly. Concomitantly, researchers have been applying online technologies to healthcare for older adults. The oldest old (for our purposes, defined as older adults aged 80+) are increasingly adopting the use of the Internet and likely have different needs than those who are between 55 and 80 years old. The main results from a literature review on the existing research in human factors and design for older adults is presented. These results highlight the need for more research in human factors and design in the much neglected population group, the oldest old.
