Frictionless and privacy-enabled physical health detection and monitoring

持续的体力活动对一个人的持续健康至关重要，与年龄或能力无关。然而，随着人们年龄的增长，体力活动水平往往会减少，这往往与各种慢性病有关，但也是由于其他几个与健康无关的问题，如社会孤立，这往往会进一步加剧个人更广泛的健康。衡量活动水平和发现行为变化的能力；运动的频率和性质；将向家庭和卫生专业人员提供有关个人持续福祉的关键信息。这项建议将调查利用家庭技术，如麦克风和无线发射器，以及人工智能来检测和跟踪个人移动的能力，以期及早预测和持续监测身体疾病。

Continued physical activity is critical to the on-going wellbeing of a person, independent of age or ability. However, as people age, levels of physical activity tend to reduce, often linked to a variety of chronic illnesses but also due to several other non-health related issues, such as social isolation, which often further compound the wider health of the person. The ability to measure levels of activity and the ability to detect changes in behaviour; both frequency and nature of movement; would provide critical information to family and health professionals over the on-going wellbeing of the person. This proposal will investigate the capability of utilising household technologies, such as microphones and wireless transmitters, and artificial intelligence to detect and track the movement of individuals with a view to early prediction and continuous monitoring of physical illness.
