Once behavior deviates from the normal range, the system automatically issues an alert. The intelligent system sets medication reminders based on doctor's orders and records the elderly's medication history to ensure medication safety.

[0049] Caregiver operation process:

[0050] S01: Caregivers need to ensure that all devices in the system are operating normally, such as checking whether the non-sense sleep monitoring pillow, fall monitoring camera, environmental monitoring sensor, and intelligent human fall detection radar are connected normally and have sufficient power;

[0051] S02: Regularly check the system background data, including the elderly's physiological data (heart rate, breathing, etc.), sleep status, behavior patterns, etc., to understand the elderly's health status in a timely manner;

[0052] S03: When the system issues a warning or alarm signal, the caregiver should respond immediately, check relevant information, such as the location of the elderly, the type of abnormal situation, etc., and quickly go to the scene to deal with it;

[0053] S04: When dealing with abnormal situations of the elderly, caregivers should take appropriate measures according to the actual situation, such as helping the fallen elderly, checking the elderly's physical condition, contacting doctors, etc.;

[0054] S05: Afterwards, the caregiver should record the abnormal condition of the elderly and the treatment process for subsequent analysis and improvement;

[0055] S06: Regularly maintain and upgrade the system to ensure system stability and accuracy.

[0056] In actual applications, devices such as contactless sleep monitoring pillows, fall monitoring cameras, environmental monitoring sensors and intelligent human fall detection radars are installed in the elderly’s living environment, such as homes, nursing homes or beds in health systems. These devices collect the elderly’s physiological and environmental data in real time, and transmit the data to the background server for analysis and processing.

[0057] The AI ​​intelligent algorithm analyzes the collected data in real time to detect the elderly's movements, behaviors and sleep status. When the elderly are found to have abnormal behavior, fall, sleep disorders, snoring or apnea, the system immediately issues a warning or alarm signal to notify relevant personnel to handle it. At the same time, the system can also provide personalized sleep improvement suggestions based on the elderly's sleep data to improve the elderly's sleep quality.

[0058] Specific technical implementation of AI intelligent algorithm in this elderly care system:

[0059] 1. Deep learning algorithm:

[0060] A convolutional neural network (CNN) is used to process the image data collected by the fall monitoring camera to identify the movements and postures of the elderly and determine whether a fall has occurred.

[0061] The physiological signals obtained by the non-contact sleep monitoring pillow are analyzed using a recurrent neural network (RNN) or a long short-term memory network (LSTM) to predict sleep status and breathing patterns, and detect sleep disorders, snoring, and apnea.

[0062] 2. Feature extraction and pattern recognition:

[0063] Features are extracted from data from environmental monitoring sensors, such as temperature, humidity, carbon dioxide concentration, etc., and machine learning algorithms (such as support vector machines, decision trees, etc.) are used to identify patterns related to the health of the elderly in order to assess the impact of the sleeping environment on the elderly.

[0064] Feature extraction is performed on the daily behavior data of the elderly, including activity level, behavior patterns, etc., and classifiers are trained to detect behavioral abnormalities and potential health risks.

[0065] 3. Anomaly Detection Algorithm:

[0066] Adopt statistical-based anomaly detection methods, such as setting thresholds or using normal distribution models, to monitor the physiological data of the elderly in real time and trigger an early warning when the data exceeds the normal range.

[0067] Apply clustering algorithms or outlier detection algorithms to identify anomalies in the elderly’s behavior patterns and detect abnormal situations in a timely manner.

[0068] 4. Multimodal data fusion:

[0069] The data from multiple data sources, such as the contactless sleep monitoring pillow, fall monitoring camera, and environmental monitoring sensor, are integrated to comprehensively analyze the physiological state, behavior, and environmental factors of the elderly to improve the accuracy of judgment.

[0070] Use multimodal fusion techniques in deep learning, such as attention mechanism or feature fusion layer, to automatically learn the relationship between data of different modalities and achieve more comprehensive monitoring of the elderly's status.

[0071] 5. Reinforcement Learning:

[0072] Through reinforcement learning algorithms, the training system intelligently adjusts early warning strategies and care measures based on the elderly’s historical data and current status to improve care outcomes and the elderly’s quality of life.

[0073] 6. Natural Language Processing

[0074] In the interactive entertainment module, natural language processing technology is used to enable the elderly to have natural conversations with the system to obtain information, entertainment and emotional support.

[0075] Using speech recognition and synthesis technology, it is convenient for the elderly to communicate with caregivers and convey their needs and situations in a timely manner.

[0076] In addition, the system can also be connected with the information system of medical institutions to realize data sharing and telemedicine services, providing more comprehensive health protection for the elderly.

[0077] The system can share data and interconnect with other health monitoring devices through interfaces to achieve more comprehensive health monitoring. For example:

[0078] 1. Data connection: The system can be connected with the information system of medical institutions to transmit the physiological data and monitoring results of the elderly in real time, so as to facilitate doctors to conduct remote diagnosis and treatment.

[0079] 2. Multi-device linkage: Other health monitoring devices (such as blood pressure monitors, blood glucose meters, etc.) can be connected to the system, and data can be integrated through a unified platform to provide a more comprehensive health status assessment.

[0080] 3. Intelligent reminders: The system can set personalized health management plans based on data from other devices, such as medication reminders, dietary recommendations, etc., to ensure that the health management of the elderly is more scientific.

[0081] 4. Data analysis: Comprehensively analyze data from different devices through AI algorithms to identify potential health risks and issue early warnings.

[0082] 5. User interface integration: A unified user interface can be developed to allow caregivers and family members to easily view all health monitoring data and improve management efficiency.

[0083] Through these methods, the system can form a synergistic effect with other health monitoring devices to improve the overall health management level of the elderly.

[0084] The above description is only a preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes according to the technical scheme and inventive concept of the present invention within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
