Poster Abstract: LEVO: LEGO® Bricks Enhanced Single-Point Vibration Sensing for Occupant Monitoring

Published:26 April 2024Publication History

ABSTRACT

The rising older adults population has led to an increased demand for in-home health monitoring to support their well-being in daily life. For instance, localization and tracking are essential applications in elderly monitoring since they can provide various information on health, mobility and can detect falls. The required power and computational resources of traditional acoustic sensor-array solutions make them unavailable on power- and computation- constrained embedded devices. In this paper, we present LEVO, a single-point directional acoustic sensing system that leverages simple LEGO® bricks to build up a physical structure that can embed directional information into a signal waveform. Our preliminary results verifies the feasibility of adopting LEVO for signal direction recognition from signal-point sensing data.
