In Japan, the total number of elderly recipients who take medicine regularly has been increasing due to population aging. Since they sometimes induce the serious accidents caused by incorrect medication, we propose iMec System to promote correct medication. The system is composed of iMec (intelligent medicine case), the Ubiquitous Sensors, iMec Server, and the Home Robot. The iMec detects medicine...
Due to the rapid increase of the population of elderly people, many countries have serious social problems. Technical approach is highly required to deal with such problems. One of serious problem can be found at nursing care of patients suffered by intractable disease like ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis) and cerebral infraction. They need intensive cares by care-workers. As a typical symptom...
With the increase of aging people, the task to maintain the health care level becomes heavier. To compensate for shortages of nurses and reduce the stress of nursing work, we have attempted to create an Internet based mobile robot system for hospitals or home healthcare. In this paper, we described a feasibility study and a basic platform design of a teleoperated healthcare service system via the...
Since the population-aging problem is increasingly affecting the society, health monitoring at home with interactive teleoperation is of interest to researchers and healthcare practitioners. Thus, we develop a low-cost and platform-independent telecare system to support the aged and disable people for long-term health care online monitoring. A trinomial protocol and multi-modal human-machine interfaces...
The population-aging problem is increasingly pressing the society. Thus, developing supporting system to improve care cost and the QoL of these elderly people is becoming particularly and timely important. This paper presents the key technologies and details implementation in development of a telecare robotic system for the aged or disabled. We also developed hardware base including a robot arm and...
