Title
SafeRoute: An Example of Multi-sensoring Tracking for the Elderly Using Mobiles on Ambient Intelligence
Abstract
New technologies have become an important support for the monitoring of older people in outdoor environments by their caregivers. Smart phones equipped with a rich set of powerful sensors allowed the ubiquitous human activity recognition on mobile platforms at a low cost. Ambient Intelligence (AmI) is an emergent area that provides useful mechanisms that allows tracking elderly people through opportunistic sensoring using smartphone devices. This paper aims to show the second version of SafeRoute, an AmI system that fusions geo-localization sensors data embedded in smartphone devices for the monitoring of elderly people. This version improves functionalities of the previous one with the inclusion of new ones in the two components of this system: the Android OS application CareofMe and the web system SafeRoute. The proposed system merges localization data from GPS and Wifi sensors data in Android OS and includes the use of GoogleMaps functionalities in Android OS and web environments for provide alerts for caregivers.
