Title
Ubiquitous reminders to manage timetable in a smart home.
Abstract
The aging of the population will bring changes on home care for elders and gerontechnologies provide alternatives for aging in place. This article presents a concept of a smart home that reminds the resident the activities he has planned on an interactive calendar. The goal is to evaluate the feasibility of the activities recognition and to study the acceptability of such a device. A proof of concept has been carried out in the DOMUS laboratory smart home to evaluate how people react when facing activity reminders. Twelve adults executed sixteen activities that were part of a one-hour morning routine. The participants were recalled for the activities they have not performed on time. The recognition program Pradha presents a fairly good accuracy rate (73%), as the learning phase is based on activities that have been performed by other people who have not been taking part of this experiment. The participants relied on the vocal reminders and expressed satisfaction after using an interactive calendar that remembers important activities.
