Project objectives are 1) to establish a diverse, multidisciplinary team of faculty, researchers, and students to address problems of mobility and cognitive impairment in elders, 2) to develop an integrated monitoring system that reliably captures data about the elder residents and their environment in a noninvasive manner and balances the needs of health safety and privacy, 3) to collect data in typical independent living, elder settings, using the integrated monitoring system, 4) to develop algorithms to extract patterns of activity from the collected sensor data, 5) to evaluate the usability of the technology and investigate fundamental issues in human-computer interaction for the population of older adults.
