Outline of Final Research Achievements

This study aims to consider services utilizing daily life information to improve the quality of life of healthy older people through conducting the large-scale questionnaire survey, the field survey using devices to measure indoor or outdoor daily life, and consideration of the indoor sensing technology.
As a result, from the questionnaire survey, it was found that proposal of services aiming for enjoyment, anxiety, and ikigai are necessary considering the differences in household structure and gender. From field survey, we found the possibility of development of applications utilizing living records, and humane services that watch based on daily life information. And we built the indoor position estimation algorithm using RSS type sensors.
