The increase of the elderly population poses today many questions to maintain elderly people in their own life independently and in autonomy. Daily activity of humans is correlated to the homeostasis and therefore the quantification of the daily activities plays an important role in the evaluation of the health and early detection of the signs of loss of autonomy. The actimetry has a great potential...
In the framework of context awareness within the home, our team is currently assessing the unobtrusive detection of inhabitants’ activity through the monitoring of their use and consumption of electricity. The objective is to develop a system for the remote monitoring of large populations of elderly people living independently at home. To be readily deployable on the field, such a system must be minimally...
In the context of ubiquitous computing, there is a particular interest in objectivizing the level of activity of elderly persons living independently in their own home. Whereas many existing monitoring systems are very intrusive and/or require a large number of sensors, an indirect approach based on the monitoring of the electrical appliances activities in home seems very attractive. We evaluated...
