Description

Currently, the elderly population in japan is more than 24%, and has been reached to the super-aging society. At the same time, the population of elderly people living alone has increased. Among other accidents of the elderly people living alone, falling is a serious problem from the point of view of life and aftermath. A fall detection service with apparatus to be used in everyday household appliances has been proposed, but there is a problem that the form to be used is different, and recognizes a falling is difficult. On the other hand, setting up surveillance cameras is the introduction is difficult. Because, there are privacy issues. In this study, I propose a system to conventional devices, a watching by a mobile robot. Mobile robot represented by a cleaning robot is prevalent in the home, and low cost weight. We providing a mechanism for accurate fall detection a burden on the elderly is less, and we have assumed that to achieve a watching by embedded device. In this paper, We conducted the design and implementation of the function. We evaluated the effectiveness of the proposed by performing the evaluation of the fall detection rate while performing tracking.
