Barriers to physical activity prevent older adults from meeting recommended physical activity levels necessary for maintaining quality of life. As technology becomes more advanced, we have the opportunity and the responsibility to address concerns faced by the aging population. We seek opportunities for technology to empower older adults to overcome barriers on their own by interviewing and learning from older adults who have successfully overcome these barriers. In this paper, we present a set of needs that technology can address, and considerations for designing technology interventions that support physical activity by older adults.
