在一个老龄化社会中，许多社会问题困扰着人们，人们越来越期望技术能够支持老年人和患者维持和增加“我可以为自己做的事情”。通过在不同场景中扩展高级移动的设备的使用，通过开发可穿戴传感器，以及通过使用嵌入环境中的众多传感器，可以满足这样的期望。这些行动将使人们能够广泛使用各种机制，支持日常生活中的人类活动和健康。实现这种机制的一个重要技术要素是能够持续感知个人和周围环境的状态。这首先意味着传感器必须能够捕获基本信息作为性能要求。这还意味着感测必须方便用户;即，必须消除操作传感器的困难或麻烦，并且必须无障碍地连续收集信息。本文以“日常生活中的健康支持”为主题，介绍了通过面部成像检测人的脉搏和使用紧凑、轻便和多功能的可穿戴传感器作为传感技术的家庭监测，轻松了解个人的行为和健康状况。它还介绍了智能住宅居民辅助独立生活的联合研究。
In an aging society beset with a multitude of social problems, there are growing expectations for technologies to support elderly people and patients in maintaining and increasing the “things that I can do for myself.” Such expectations can be met by expanding the use of advanced mobile devices in diverse scenarios, by developing wearable sensors, and by using numerous sensors embedded in the environment. These actions will enable widespread extensive use of mechanisms for supporting human activities and health in everyday life. An important technological element for achieving such mechanisms is the ability to continually sense the state of the individual and the surrounding environment. This means first and foremost that sensors must be able to capture essential information as a performance requirement. It also means that sensing must be convenient for the user; i.e., the difficulty or bother of operating sensors must be eliminated, and the continuous collection of information must be hassle-free. Under the theme of “health support in daily life,” this paper describes detection of a person’s pulse through facial imaging and in-home monitoring using compact, light, and multi-functional wearable sensors as sensing technologies for hassle-free understanding of an individual’s behavior and health. It also introduces joint research on assisted independent living for smart house residents.
