The aim of this study was to provide adequate home health monitoring for the elderly at home using fully automated signal measurement with personal identification to support daily health care and to improve quality of life. We attempted to develop a home health monitoring system that did not provide any restrictions during sleep, bathing and excretion. A new room including bath and toilet was constructed. The system consisted of monitoring devices and a computer terminal for collecting data. The data were automatically obtained from monitoring devices situated at the bed, bath and toilet and were transferred to a data terminal and stored for further analysis. Where subjects live with their spouse or family, personal identification is required to store data individually. For the bathtub data, personal identification was performed using ECG data. Sampled data were reduced by wavelet transform and distinguished by a neural network. The data acquisition system is now underway and data are being extensively collected.
