Title
Pilot Site Deployment of an IoT Solution for Older Adults' Early Behavior Change Detection.
Abstract
The world demography is continuously changing. During the last decade, we noticed a regular variation in the world demography leading to a nearly balanced society share between the young and aging population. This increasing older adult population is facing many problems. In fact, the transition to the aging period is associated with physical, psychological, cognitive, and societal changes. Negative behavior changes are considered as indicators of older adults' frailty. This is why it is important to detect such behavior changes early in order to prevent isolation, sedentary lifestyle, and even diseases, and therefore delay the frailty period. This paper exhibits a proof-of-concept pilot site deployment of an Internet of Thing (IoT) solution for the continuous monitoring and detection of older adults' behavior changes. The objective is to help geriatricians detect sedentary lifestyle and health-related problems at an early stage.
