Hallym Jikimi 3rd system: web-based monitoring for u-health care service

Published: 26 April 2009 Publication History

Abstract

This paper describes a remote monitoring system about behavioral patterns of elders who live alone. The developed system is composed of an in-house sensing system and a server system. The in-house sensing system is a set of wireless sensor nodes which has pyroelectric infrared (PIR) sensor to detect a motion of elder, emergency button, and magnetic sensor to detect when a door is opened. Each sensing module sends its detection packet to a home gateway via wireless link. The home gateway stores the received packets into a remote database. The server system is composed of a database server and a web server, which provides web-based monitoring system to caregivers. It makes the cost-effective intelligent care service. We have evaluated the monitoring system from continuous operation. It has been three years since the experiment started in Hallym u-health Educational Test-bed (HuET). The result of experiment shows the promising possibilities to estimate the behavioral patterns and the current status of elder even though the simplicity of sensing capability.
