The global ageing population presents unique challenges and opportunities for technological innovation. This paper introduces the Internet of Caring Things (IoCT) as a novel evolution of the Internet of Things (IoT), reframing the approach to technology development for healthy ageing and longevity. Unlike traditional IoT applications or age-specific technologies, IoCT focuses on what people genuinely care about in their daily lives, integrating data-driven insights to support well-being across the lifespan. Through analysis of behavioral factors, market trends, and real-world case studies, this paper demonstrates how IoCT represents a significant paradigm shift in addressing healthy longevity challenges, moving from “caring about people” to “what people care about”.
