Intelligent Bathroom Lift

Abstract

From intelligent home control to advanced health management systems, long-term healthcare plays an important role in our home care. With the progress of the mobile sensing devices and telecommunication, we applied the Internet of Things (IoT) technology to develop the intelligent bath machine. For real-monitoring the physiological status and safety of the senior citizens or Cardiovascular disease patients when bathing, we integrated the wearable sensing devices, wireless communication, IoT technologies, and automated bathroom lift chair. This smart bathroom lift can collect and monitor the patients' daily physiological information. It also can alert the occurrence of an emergency to avoid serious accident. Based on the long-term monitoring and big data analysis, we could improve our living quality and health.
