Abstract
The increase of the elderly population poses today many questions to maintain elderly people in their own life independently and in autonomy. Daily activity of humans is correlated to the homeostasis and therefore the quantification of the daily activities plays an important role in the evaluation of the health and early detection of the signs of loss of autonomy. The actimetry has a great potential on the market of technologies for the maintenance to residence of the elderly. We propose to follow up actimetric data by using kinematic sensors integrated in a smartphone. The smartphone is a good candidate as this technology is already accepted in daily life.
