Abstract

Recently, the average life expectancy of people has been extended, but the healthy life expectancy is not necessarily extended. In this study, in order to extend the healthy life expectancy, a framework of health information feedback was constructed to improve the health consciousness and the health behavior of the people. In this system, the push type digital signage communicates with the user’s activity meter with advertising function through the BLE communication and displays customized healthcare information based on the health log analysis using the effect of gamification for each user. From the evaluation experiment, it was confirmed that the feedback of the health information led to the improvement of the health consciousness and the health behavior of the user.
