Keywords: | Engenharia biomédica; Ciências da Saúde; Informática; Rede de sensores; Monitorização; Idosos | Issue Date: | Sep-2015 | Citation: | Ribeira, Hugo Fabião Pires da / Desenvolvimento de uma rede de sensores para monitorização de idosos | Place of publication or event: | Coimbra | Abstract: | First world population is aging at an astonishing pace, currently 5% of the european population is above their 80s and this number is expected to triple in the next 20 years. This aging will bring a new set of challenges in the elderly care sector, both social and financial. Nourish Sensors aims to bring a telemonitoring tool to aid the elderly maintain an independent and active life, as well as generate notifications when emergency situations occur. This work resulted in the integration of a sensor network installed in the habitation of the patient that transmits data over a 3G connection to a remote server. This data is then stored and analysed in order to infer a circadian cycle for the monitored person. | Description: | Dissertação de Mestrado Integrado em Engenharia Biomédica apresentada à Faculdade de Ciências e Tecnologia da Universidade de Coimbra | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10316/29954 | Rights: | openAccess |
