Design and implementation of behaviour detection system for the elderly based on smart phone

Abstract

With rapid advances in wireless sensor networks and embedded computing technologies, various behaviour detection devices have arose and been applied in practical use for monitoring the situations of the elderly in order to ensure the safety of them. This paper aims to propose a behaviour detection system with a sensor board (iNEMO™ V2) and the iNEMO SDK (software development kit), which utilizes the accelerometer, micro-sensors, digital data processing as well as wireless technologies. The system practically simulates a real environment for the intended case.
