Abstract

The senior care service plays an important role in senior living industry. With the unprecedented increasing of the seniors and the demanding activities of daily living (ADL) service, caregiver’s workload and community’s operational cost grow dramatically which lead tremendous challenges. From both caregivers and community operators’ perspective, we developed an open IoT data platform for senior living named JoyDigit NexIoT to solve above problems. Multidimensional open IoT data from smart home, health care equipment and security monitoring devices are integrated and processed in real-time on the platform to build dynamical profiles for both seniors and communities, and it also provides open data APIs for customized senior living applications. Together with the novel JoyDigit Intelligent Action Adviser (JIAA), the platform outputs the recommended service or management actions to caregivers and operators, which could greatly reduce the caregiver’s daily workload and increase community operator’s management efficiency. In this paper, we describe JoyDigit NexIoT platform’s features, architecture and JIAA, and also present the practical scenarios to be demonstrated.
