| Abstract |
| This research studies trendy smart watch design for elders who live alone. A safty device is needed to substitute cohabitting family who used to monitor elders in the past. Some problems are detected in existing health monitoring devices and emergency alarming devices. Their usability and effectiveness are not satisfactory since actions like pressing a button are required to be taken by elders themselves in an actual emergency situation. Another weakness of existing devices is their incompatibility to smartpones, despite increasing number of smartphone use by elders. This research has a significance in preventing safety accidents casued by a rise in the number of elders who live alone, accelerated by aging population. |
