Sažetak
Modern technologies have become a part of everyday human living helping in performing human routine activities or health monitoring. They are a source of human habits information, useful for behavior correction or the source of interesting information for health monitoring. Typical solutions assume various types of assistive technologies which make living easier especially to elderly population or to those who are unable to take a care about themselves. Those systems can be used to monitor the vital signs continuously over a 24 hour period and are in some cases crucial for understanding the progression of chronic symptoms of illness, such as asthma disease. On the other side, measuring the people habits and possibility to detect unexpected situations have a crucial importance for assistive technologies which monitor expected routine daily activities. Hence, there are lot of products recently, known as peoplemeters or audience meters, which measure people attention under various circumstances such as watching different TV channels, or people engagement in performing some defined activities such as reading newspaper, gardening or sleeping. In this lecture, a new concepts in assistive living technologies will be presented with special focus on the systems developed in the Laboratory for Modelling and Intelligent System at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering and Naval Architecture, University of Split, Croatia.
