The Smart Elderly Watching U System, developed by four students of the Higher Diploma in Computer and Electronic Engineering at IVE (Haking Wong), uses technologies such as the IoT, big data and sensor applications to remotely monitor the health of elderly. Featuring position tracking, heart rate monitoring and motion detection functions, the device notifies concerned parties through a mobile app if the real data deviates from pre-set data—including health condition and distance from home. Caretaker can help relay live video and data to the family doctor for immediate medical assistance with use of a pair of smart glasses.
This project is also an industry collaborative prototype planned for market launch in the near future. It is now currently under testing and fine tuning, and hopefully the Watching U System 2.0 will come with further enhanced performance and functions.
