Dr Stuart Smith is an international researcher with a passion developing technologies that facilitate independent living for all ages and abilities. His career has taken him from working with NASA in California to falls research in Ireland, working with Microsoft, Intel, Sony and other technology companies to develop games for older adults.

His expertise centres around the translation of the research evidence base to products and services that enable older adults and people living with a disability to remain independent, engaged and productive.

His academic interests range from understanding the biological basis of posture control in older adults to reduce their risk of falls though the development and use of virtual reality environments to deliver education and training programs, implementation of novel sensing and computing technologies to keep older adults living independently, well and productive through to the role that interactive digital games can be used to engage people in repetitive exercise programs.
