摘要: This paper presents the findings of a qualitative study on perceptions and thoughts elderly people use current sensor network technology for assisted aged care. Focus groups were presented with examples nodes example scenarios their use, then invited to provide input range issues surrounding design technology. The focus group verified health care professional as control measure. examines sensing based interaction, implementation methodologies user acceptance specifically elderly, from elderly's perspective. A significant finding is that two most important factors are cost control.
