Cognitive impairment diseases are becoming more and prevalent mainly due to population aging the increase in life expectancy. Sensory monitoring systems may allow people with mild cognitive impairments (MCIs) or at early stages of dementia live home for longer independence security. This work presents a wireless sensor network (WSN) based on wearables that obtains indoor outdoor location step information, reporting them over long-range WAN (LoRaWAN) network. Each wearable (WWS) uses global...
Enabling the elderly to live independently and maintain their quality of life at home for as long possible constitutes a major public health challenge, especially in rural semi-urban environments where access formal care may be difficult. Tracking activity monitoring allows detect when skills daily activities are going down provide timely treatments avoid future complications. This work presents an IoT system based on wearable prototype intended indoor outdoor tracking physical dementia...
Indoor Device-Free Localisation (DFL) systems are receiving increasing attention to replace traditional active ones in some applications, such as those that support independent living for vulnerable people who not able carry sensors. These analyse the influence channel transmission response of certain emitted signals when interacting with human body order locate it. Whereas most widespread DFL make use radio-frequency through Radar, WiFi or BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) sensors, this work...
This work presents an Android application that allows indoor positioning of portable devices, such as mobile phones or tablets, and its smooth transition to outdoors localization. Different technologies methods have been combined for purpose: Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS), Ultrasonic Local Positioning (ULPS), measurements Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) carried by the user, Graph-Matching techniques. The U-LPSs, composed a set ultrasonic beacons, are placed in areas where higher...
This work presents a system for the remote supervision of vulnerable people in their homes and surroundings, to offer both formal informal carers objective information about indoor outdoor location, activity parameters or risky situations. The is based on an open-source wearable, that includes accelerometer step-counting fall detection; BLE technology symbolic location indoors; GNSS sensor positioning; ambient sensors; panic button. Sensory sent cloud wirelessly using LoRa technology, thus...
