  In this exploratory study, we examine the possibilities of non-invasive
Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) in the context of Smart Home Technology (SHT)
targeted at older adults. During two workshops, one stationary, and one online
via Zoom, we researched the insights of the end users concerning the potential
of the BCI in the SHT setting. We explored its advantages and drawbacks, and
the features older adults see as vital as well as the ones that they would
benefit from. Apart from evaluating the participants' perception of such
devices during the two workshops we also analyzed some key considerations
resulting from the insights gathered during the workshops, such as potential
barriers, ways to mitigate them, strengths and opportunities connected to BCI.
These may be useful for designing BCI interaction paradigms and pinpointing
areas of interest to pursue in further studies.
