Cyber-physical system for assisted living and home monitoring

Assisted living and home monitoring systems are gradually becoming a necessity, considering the current trends in population ageing and older adults' desire to continue living independently in their homes and their communities for as long as possible. This paper presents our current achievements regarding the implementation of a cyber-physical system for assisted living and home monitoring, developed as part of a European Union-funded research project. Integrating a wireless network of smart, sensor-equipped hardware nodes for indoor localization and ambient monitoring, as well as both server and client side software components, the system offers basic activity recognition, decision support, supervision and real-time alerting capabilities. While briefly presenting the high-level architecture of our proposed solution, in this paper we focus our attention on the software components of the platform, which are portrayed in more detail. Using data acquired by the smart nodes along with data processing and analysis techniques, the system is able to pinpoint the location of monitored persons within the home, to provide reports about ambient conditions and basic activities of the supervised person and, most importantly, in case of potential danger, send real-time alerts to caregivers, allowing them to act immediately to ensure the safety of monitored persons.
