As America’s population of retirees grows, more and more people over 65 are making decisions about where to spend their retirement. Advances in healthy living have enabled people to remain active well into old age, and according to a recent AARP survey, 87% of retired adults would prefer to remain in their homes or communities as they age. In this episode of Deconstructing IoT, we explore how the Internet of Things can help older people to retain their independence while still keeping their families involved in their care.

We built an application that uses an Arduino Yún, a microphone, and a motion sensor to monitor an independent retiree who is living alone, and then logs activity data to a Microsoft Power BI database using Temboo so that family members can make sure that nothing is amiss. We also used Temboo’s PagerDuty and Nexmo Choreos to send family members alerts if something has gone wrong.

Parts: Aduino Yún, Adafruit Electret Mic Amp, IR distance sensor, wires

The Yún streams movement data from the motion sensor to Power BI, and if that data is anomalous, triggers a PagerDuty alert that can be sent to family members or caregivers. The code for the PagerDuty TriggerEvent Choreo can be generated here: https://temboo.com/library/Library/Pa...

The Yún also listens for cries for help using the attached mic, and if it registers one, it will dispatch an SMS alert using Nexmo. You can generate code for the Nexmo SendMessage Choreo here: https://temboo.com/library/Library/Ne...
