Funded Activity Summary

Monitoring health and wellbeing of seniors using unintrusive sensors. This project addresses concerns regarding the wellbeing of seniors living at home by modelling their daily routines to detect significant changes due to functional decline or the onset of illness. These models are planned to be integrated into a personalised in-home monitoring system that also detects instantaneous adverse events, such as falls. This system will include a novel inexpensive sensor bundle comprising unintrusive sensors and decision procedures that determine whether and how to communicate with seniors and carers to deliver information and alerts. The effectiveness and acceptance of these technologies will be evaluated on a diverse population of seniors and carers.
