Title Remote and non-invasive monitoring of elderly in a smart city context
Year 2018
Published
Abstract One of Smart City's goals is to reduce healthcare spending, also by prolonging the active and independent lives of the elderly. Often the elderly live alone; their lifestyle, including proper adherence to therapies, is often controlled by relatives or friends or caregivers by daily or weekly telephone calls. In addition to investigating energy and environment infrastructure and services, the project Brescia Smart Living wants to experience new remote monitoring services. The elderly is constantly monitored by a system of wearable and home sensors; a smartphone, acting as a home gateway, stores and elaborates data and reports events to one or more people chosen by the elderly person. The main result of the project is a very versatile and scalable sensory system, thanks to a framework that simplifies the management of several external devices in Android applications. An ambient assisted living application is presented, showing how the life style of an elderly person can be monitored in a non-invasive way.
