Aim of the paper is to demonstrate how interconnecting low cost BLE wrist sensing edge devices to local and remote control systems to give rise to a pervasive and M-Connected Eldercare, i.e., an effective continuous monitoring and control of the health status of elderly people. The paper does not deal with a specific pathology but illustrates how the proposed platform may help elderly people to maintain a well living health status. The paper discusses how the data sensed by wrist bands/watches are used by a control system resident on an local edge device to carry out a fast diagnosis for the first control actions. Then, how using two low cost web services is illustrated to better help the elderly people: one is IFTTT to alert medical staff and family members about detected problems, the other is Beebotte to collect the sensed data on a remote DB to support effectively the medical decisions.

Abstract
Aim of the paper is to demonstrate how interconnecting low cost BLE wrist sensing edge devices to local and remote control systems to give rise to a pervasive and M-Connected Eldercare, i.e., an effective continuous monitoring and control of the health status of elderly people. The paper does not deal with a specific pathology but illustrates how the proposed platform may help elderly people to maintain a well living health status. The paper discusses how the data sensed by wrist bands/watches are used by a control system resident on an local edge device to carry out a fast diagnosis for the first control actions. Then, how using two low cost web services is illustrated to better help the elderly people: one is IFTTT to alert medical staff and family members about detected problems, the other is Beebotte to collect the sensed data on a remote DB to support effectively the medical decisions.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
