Significant health-industry human resource needs increase the reliance on family and friends to support older adults hoping to age in place. This book explores how recent improvements in integrated home technologies have the potential to address those challenges. The book considers how embedded home sensors can be used to monitor the health and wellbeing of older adults and how that can be used to assist with supporting safety and well-being. The content is designed to help multiple stakeholders in the supportive smart home space to better understand the complexity of this field and the need for transdisciplinary collaboration. These stakeholders include the older adults who will benefit from supportive smart home technology; informal and formal caregiver and healthcare professionals concerned about the older adult's well-being; researchers from multiple disciplines in the supportive smart home area and their funders; companies looking to develop solutions and servicesor expand their offerings; policy makers who want to ensure privacy and equity in access and a successful integration of these technologies into the evolving health and social services sectors; and students, the future leaders in AgeTech. Overall, the intent of the book is to inspire engineers, computer scientists, industrial designers, clinicians and healthcare providers, social scientists, students, policy makers, and older adults and their caregivers to collaborate in advancing the supportive smart home space to develop more options for aging in place.Inhaltsverzeichnis zu „Supportive Smart Homes “

Autoren-Porträt von Frank Knoefel, Bruce Wallace, Neil Thomas, Heidi Sveistrup, Rafik Goubran, Christine L. Laurin
Dr. Frank Knoefel is a Physician at the Bruyère Memory Program, Ottawa, ON, Canada, a Senior Investigator with the Bruyère Research Institute, and an Affiliate Researcher with Carleton University. He obtained his MD at l'Université de Montréal, Family Medicine at l'Université de Sherbrooke, and his Fellowship in Care of the Elderly at the University of Ottawa. In addition to his appointment as an Associate Professor with University of Ottawa's Faculty of Medicine, he is also an Adjunct Research Professor in Systems and Computer Engineering at Carleton University. His research expertise is in the use of sensors and data analytics to facilitate aging in place, initially focusing on mobility, and more recently working on cognition. Currently he is working on sensor applications for cognition both in smart supportive homes and driving simulators. He holds a Master of Public Administration and a Fellowship and Diploma in Care of the Elderly with the College of Family Physicians of Canada. Recently he was appointed as University of Ottawa Brain and Mind - Bruyère Research Institute Chair in Primary Health Care Dementia Research. In his spare time, Frank enjoys spending time with his family: snowboarding, sailing, photography, music, and amateur construction. Bruce Wallace is Executive Director of AGE-WELL Sensors and Analytics for Monitoring Mobility and Memory National Innovation Hub (SAM3), Adjunct Research Professor with the Systems and Computer Engineering Department, Carleton University, Ottawa, ON, Canada and an Affiliated Researcher with the Bruyère Research Institute. He holds a Master and PhD in Engineering from Carleton University and has studied business at MIT Sloan and UNC Kenan-Flagler. With over 20 years of experience in the high technology sector, his current research interests include the application of sensors, signal processing, and big data analytics-especially as applied to cognition measurement witha specific focus on aging and

independence. His work includes applications within personal residences, personal vehicles, hospitals, and other care settings. He is a Senior Member of the IEEE. Outside of work his interests include swimming, canoeing, music, and distance cycling.
Dr. Neil Thomas is a Cognitive and Behavioral Neurologist at the Bruyère Memory Program, an Assistant Professor of Neurology, Department of Medicine, University of Ottawa and an Affiliate Investigator, Bruyère Research Institute in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. He holds a Master of Science in Neuroscience from Queen's University. He completed his MD and neurology residency training at the University of Ottawa, and a Fellowship in Geriatric Neurology at the Oregon Health and Science University. His research focus is on using digital biomarkers to objectively measure and quantify changes in cognition and functional activities in individuals with cognitive impairment. He is also interested inimproving the assessment of time and effort spent on caregiving tasks using sensor-based objective outcome measures. He is a member of the American Academy of Neurology, the International Society to Advance Alzheimer Research and Treatment, the AGE-WELL National Innovation Hub in Sensors and Analytics for Monitoring Mobility and Memory, and the Consortium of Canadian Centres for Clinical Cognitive Research. He enjoys spending time with his wife and children, especially at the family cottage, kayaking, and skiing.
