Outline of Final Research Achievements

Elderly individuals with physical disabilities often face various health risks. To identify and reduce such risks, automatic monitoring is an effective solution. Continuous monitoring of everyday living activities can detect emerging health risks and notify to the subjects. In this study, we developed a novel sensors network system for monitoring and notification of health risks. The system consists of sensors network installed at home and a cloud server with a database and applications. The sensors system newly developed can detect heal risks related to pressure ulcer, hyperthermia and locomotive syndrome. The system was installed in a home environment and successfully demonstrated the detection and notification of the target health risks.
