Interest in Information and Communication Technologies for human
monitoring, smart health and assisted living is growing due to the
significant impact that these technologies are expected to have on
improving the quality of life of ageing populations around the
world. This book brings together chapters written by a range of
researchers working in these topics, providing an overview of the
areas and covering current research, developments and applications
for a readership of researchers and research-led engineering
practitioners. It discusses the promises and the possible
advantages of these technologies, and also indicates the challenges
for the future. Topics covered include: personal monitoring and
health data acquisition in smart homes; contactless monitoring of
respiratory activity; technology-based assistance of people with
dementia; wearable sensors for gesture analysis; design and
prototyping of home automation systems for the monitoring of
elderly people; multi-sensor platform for circadian rhythm
analysis; smart multi-sensor solutions for activity detection;
human monitoring based on heterogeneous sensor networks; mobile
health for vital signs and gait monitoring systems; and
smartphone-based blood pressure monitoring for falls risk
assessment.
