Description
The COVID-19 pandemic and the need for selfisolation
has decreased the frequency of visits to senior citizens
by family members or caregivers. Because of this, many health
concerns of the elderly remained unresolved. We created a IoT
system, called Zelar@CB, that monitors the daily activities of
isolated elderly people who do not have access to at-home care.
The proposed project detects unusual activity by monitoring the
person’s usage of electrical appliances to track if the user left the
stove on or if there is a change in usage. It can also detect when
the user falls, and sends an alert to family members or
caregivers. info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion
