Abstract

This paper proposes an android-based elderly support system as an alternative way for existing care homes or health care centers. The aims of the study are to monitor the users based on their location via GPS tracking method and detect the user's heart rate using a portable pulse sensor. This project can be divided into two parts; development of android application and hardware implementation. Android application is developed to integrate a caretaker subsystem with the controller. A caretaker subsystem acts as an admin of the system which responsible for monitoring the users. Hardware implementation involves construction of a prototype equipped with Arduino microcontroller, Global Positioning System (GPS) module, Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM) modem, Bluetooth module and power supply unit. A set of data collection is analyzed to evaluate the consistency of the heartbeat monitoring function. The proposed project offers a portable day care service for elderly people via android smart phone in a low cost manner.

基于android的老年人支持系统

本文提出了一种基于android的老年人支持系统，作为现有养老院或卫生保健中心的替代方式。研究的目的是通过GPS跟踪方法根据用户的位置对其进行监测，并使用便携式脉搏传感器检测用户的心率。本项目可分为两部分;android应用程序开发及硬件实现。开发了Android应用程序，将管理员子系统与控制器集成在一起。管理员子系统充当系统的管理员，负责监视用户。硬件实现包括构建Arduino微控制器、全球定位系统(GPS)模块、全球移动通信系统(GSM)调制解调器、蓝牙模块和电源单元的原型。分析一组采集的数据，评估心跳监测功能的一致性。本项目通过安卓智能手机为老年人提供低成本的便携式日托服务。
