Development of an Integrated Health Care Environment for Elderly With RFID Technology

A falling prevention system will be established by RFID location and motion detection.

  • Using RFID to detect participants' allocation indoor.
  • Modifying environment parameters such as light, sound, to alert users if them enter a place with potential hazards.

Data exchange models will also developed in this project

  • Interchanging different data including physiological data and RFID data into a database
  • establishing interchange protocol according the HL7 standard
