“…However, with the rapid growth in technology and Internet services, it is now possible to avail of these services at home. Numerous studies [114,117,118] have been reported in the past for remote monitoring of daily activities through IoT-based systems. An IoT-based living assistance system has been proposed in [119], which can monitor and register patient's vital information.…”

There is a significant increase in the geriatric population across the globe. With the increase in the number of geriatric people and their associated health issues, the need for larger healthcare resources is inevitable. Because of this, healthcare service-providing industries are facing a severe challenge. However, technological advancement in recent years has enabled researchers to develop intelligent devices to deal with the scarcity of healthcare resources. In this regard, the Internet of things (IoT) technology has been a boon for healthcare services industries. It not only allows the monitoring of the health parameters of geriatric patients from a remote location but also lets them live an independent life in a cost-efficient way. The current paper provides up-to-date comprehensive knowledge of IoT-based technologies for geriatric healthcare applications. The study also discusses the current trends, issues, challenges, and future scope of research in the area of geriatric healthcare using IoT technology. Information provided in this paper will be helpful to develop futuristic solutions and provide efficient cost-effective healthcare services to the needy.

“…The researchers in that study used the heart rate sensor and the PIR sensor to detect elderly activities and the cloud system to store elderly information using an internet connection. Cheng et al have presented an application to monitor elderly care with IoT [4]. In that study, the researchers used the ThingSpeak IoT platform and the ADXL345 accelerometer to monitor the elderly while doing activities at home.…”

This study aims to develop a smart belt that can be used to monitor elderly activities at home by integrating Multi-Modal Sensors (MMS) and the Internet of Things (IoT). The MMS used in this study to collect elderly information is the IMU sensor, vibration sensor, push button, and ESP32 to process IoT data. Furthermore, the IoT platform used to transmit elderly information data from the smart belt to the family smartphone is Blynk. In this study, the smart belt can monitor the activities of the elderly when walking, sitting, lying down, and sleeping. After that, the smart belt can provide warning alerts when the elderly carry out abnormal activities at home. The results of this study show that the smart belt can monitor the activities of the elderly when walking, sitting, lying down, sleeping, and warning alerts on the family smartphone based on the integration of MMS and IoT.

“…This work has been extended by introducing Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) and Global Positioning System (GPS) tracking for the patients who were under quarantine (Chin et al, 2022). Nevertheless, there are researchers who have constructed IoT-based wearable devices for health monitoring purposes (Cheng et al, 2020;Taştan, 2018). In another paper (Cheng et al, 2020), an accelerometer was used for elderly fall detection and connected to an IoT platform called ThingSpeakTM.…”

Traditional elderly monitoring systems may misdiagnose and treat senior citizens due to inaccurate results, resulting in higher care costs and poorer health outcomes. Thus, the Internet of Things (IoT) was introduced to provide accurate, real-time monitoring data to improve overall performance. The IoT health system connects devices wirelessly to collect and analyze health data, monitor vital signs and physical activity, and provide real-time insights to improve health management. This paper aims to monitor real-time conditions as well as ensure the safety of senior citizens by developing a low-cost wearable prototype device to measure heart pulses, detect falls, and determine their actual location in an indoor space. The data is uploaded to IoT platforms like Blynk, Firebase, and Google Assistant, providing frequent updates on the elderly's health status and conditions and sending emergency messages, if necessary, to an Android application. A home control system is also developed to control the home appliances using mobile phones or voice control. A demonstration has been conducted to showcase the operation and functionality of the prototype. The proposed system has the capability to simplify the daily routines of the elderly while also granting caregivers greater control over their health and well-being.
