As the number of elderly people in our population continues to grow, so has the attention directed toward their care. Furniture is a pertinent component of this, as its design can significantly impact their day-to-day lives in terms of safety, comfort, and convenience. Researchers, therefore, have analyzed the functionality and operability of these pieces and proposed design strategies that incorporate intelligent technology thereby improving the usability for the elderly. One promising branch of this research is the internet of things (IoT) and its application to smart homes that can greatly improve life for those in their later years. The value of furniture intelligence is evident, particularly with the ever-increasing demands from consumers for comfort and convenience. In recent years, with the continuous enhancement of consumer lifestyle, purchasers have been craving for comfort and intelligence from furniture products. As smart home systems often come with high costs, consuming large amounts of energy, and having low integration levels, this paper proposes a scheme to tackle these issues. It expresses the foundational idea that furniture for the elderly should be made secure, convenient, intelligent, and cost-effective based on the use of the internet of things technology. This technique has increased usability, safety, and economy by 3.54%, 3.81%, and 4.38%, respectively, thus acting as a valuable reference for “aging furniture” designs in theory and practice.
