To support our health, we must recognize our health condition and living patterns precisely. The aim of this study is to describe a way of monitoring human behavior during daily life to improve quality of life. Human behavior reflects the mental and physical health of the subject. In this study, an unconstrained indoor monitoring system was developed. Human behavior and activity were monitored by infrared positioning sensors and magnetic sensors. In addition, the use of furniture and doors was monitored by magnetic sensors. The system, which included several sensors, was installed in one apartment and monitoring of human behavior was carried out during nine weeks. The system operated without any trouble and the data showed that the daily cycle of an individual could be observed without that person's awareness.
