With the Internet of Things (IoT) and cloud computing, innovative system designers should be able to create innovative changes for young and old. The Sensara Senior Lifestyle System addresses the needs of older users.
Using a combination of 5 to 8 motion sensors and open/close sensors strategically placed in the home and wirelessly connected to a gateway that accesses the internet, sufficient information can be provided about the senior’s normal lifestyle. A cloud based analytics engine identifies the user’s living patterns and when variations occur, the system sends a text message to the smart phone of a care giver, family member or friend. The non-intrusive nature of the sensing and cloud analysis provides security and allows seniors to live without additional home support.
