Sensor protects the elderly

Computer scientists in Australia say they are developing new sensor systems aimed at helping older people live safely and independently.

According to the project of the University of Adelaide, RFID technology has been adapted to automatically validate and monitor human activity, with the aim of determining whether the A person's daily activities are normal or need medical attention.

Australia's new sensor system can remotely monitor older people's activity

While RFID technology is widely used today with applications such as shop burglar prevention and vehicle identification at traffic points, a new approach to human interventions is field is being studied.

'Our work is part of a number of new projects around the world that are being implemented extensively to automatically identify human activity, " Greenbang website quoted expert Michael Sheng.

Michael Sheng predicts that the system will play an important role in the aging population, especially in the West, where the descendants live separately from their grandparents.

The team is working to solve this problem by developing a system that uses sensors attached to objects in the home where objects interact, from which data analysis software is obtained. Interpret these activities and determine if things are still ok.

The new system is easy to use and inexpensive, forcing users to wear a control suit or turn on and off equipment, according to Australian experts.
