متن کاملAssistive Intelligent Environments: Enabling Aging in Place
As people grow older, they depend more heavily upon outside support for health assessment and medical care. The current healthcare infrastructure in America is widely considered to be inadequate to meet the needs of an increasingly older population. One solution, called aging in place, is to ensure that the elderly can live safely and independently in their own homes for as long as possible. Au...
متن کاملUsing Technology to Enhance Aging in Place
Integrated sensor networks have been installed in apartments of residents at TigerPlace, a retirement community helping residents age in place. Motion and bed sensor events have been logged continuously for over two years in some apartments. Using data from the sensor network, we have been investigating potential correlations to health events, such as falls, emergency room visits, and hospitali...
