Fast care – real-time sensor data analysis framework for intelligent assistance systems

Abstract

Main target of fast care is the development of a real-time capable sensor data analysis framework for intelligent assistive systems in the field of Ambient Assisted Living, eHealth, Tele Rehabilitation, and Tele Care. The aim is to provide a medically valid integrated situation model based on a distributed, ad-hoc connected, energy-efficient sensor infrastructure suitable for daily use. The integrated situation model combining physiological, cognitive, and kinematic information about the patient is grounded on the intelligent fusion of heterogeneous sensor data on different levels. The model can serve as a tool for quickly identifying risk and hazards as well as enable medical assistance systems to autonomously intervene in real-time and actively give telemedical feedback.
