Senior Safety. Smart Kit for independent living.
Technology can generate autonomy that improves not only the quality of life of the elderly person, but also of those who do not have the opportunity to dedicate a lot of time to the care of the latter.
World statistics state that the elderly population in the next fifteen years will be greater than the eighteen-year-old population.
This implies the need to provide more assistance. The elderly prefer to live and grow old within the walls of their homes rather than in a different structure, which leads to assistance and a waste of human resources far greater than normal. We must therefore focus on the ability of the elderly to become independent. This can also happen thanks to the use of technology and the implementation of the IoT in the daily life of the elderly.
When we talk about IoT in the home context, the first thought is that of the smart home: the ability to have an intelligent environment that can help those who live there simplify many basic functions.
Often, however, the psychology of the elderly must be taken into account: the refusal to technology or the refusal to simply get help is not a trivial matter, therefore it is necessary to give dignity to the elderly person by building new technologies thinking about the union independence-dignity, creating intelligent objects that can help them. elderly without destabilizing them.
The Senior Safety App integrates IoT devices making the home and the outdoors in which the elderly live a safe and always controlled environment. Through the installation of a Smart Home Kit in the home of the subject together with a smart watch with bluetooth technology, we will be able to analyze the behavior, the state of health, the vital parameters, the movements thanks to the support of tutoe and social workers. . The app will allow you to set a reminder on the drugs to be administered, clinical, drug, allergy, blood group, all in compliance with current regulations (GDPR) for the protection of the citizen.
In this way, continuous and real-time monitoring of the person's physical and psychological health is possible, and if necessary, it is possible to intervene in response to emergencies and changes in the behavior of the individual such as to require hospitalization in adequate structures.
The data that is displayed through the App allows the analysis and control of:
- Movements of the elderly
- Access to the premises of the house
- Hours of stay in bed
- Analysis of behavioral habits
- Presence inside the premises
- Time spent on the premises
- Support with emergency light for moving around in the event of a power failure
- Alarms with light projection on the access routes (flights of stairs)
- GPS track
- Wristwatch
- Vital parameters:
• cardio
• pedometer
• stages of sleep
• blood saturation (It is therefore essential to assess the degree of respiratory function of an individual)
The sections of the Senior Safety App:
- Registration or Login as Admin, Tutor or Family member
- Consultation of the list of seniors entrusted to the Tutors
- Consultation of the Boards, State of operation
- Daily, weekly, monthly reports
- Personalization of behavioral thresholds for elderly
- Alarms
- Contact list
- Personal card of the elderly with Tab:
• Analyses
• Board
• Activities
• Tutor
• Relative
• Map
With the “Board” tab it is possible to view the operating status of the Kit components (battery level, sensors on / off). In the "Tutor" and "Relative" tabs, on the other hand, there are direct contacts of the senior managers who can be notified in case of an emergency.
