As the number of single-person households is increasing in Korea, the demand for emergency support networks for the elderly and women is also growing. To meet the need, systemic solutions, such as a wide distribution of cell phones with embedded motion sensors that can alert the first responders or police in case of health or safety crisis, are regarded as critical issues. This paper introduces a design which registers the user's motions to process emergency reports via a mobile app running in the background. The method offers an affordable solution to reporting emergencies taking place both indoors and outdoors as it does not require an addition of hardware but only simple hand gestures.

Recently, as elderly people suffering from chronic diseases have increased and disasters such as traffic accidents have increased, urgent rescue workers and doctors need to respond effectively to such emergencies. For elderly people, the difficulty in communicating their condition especially the health condition during disaster is one of the problems in which delay on immediate handling by rescue team can cause death. Providing a solution for this problem is one of the main issues in our research. In this paper, we use the QR code to communicate the minimum personal information and medical history needed for emergency medical treatment to emergency medical personnel, and to transmit the medical history and treatment data to the doctors of the hospital through QR code and fingerprint recognition, respectively. Especially, by using both QR code of smart phone and fingerprint of individual, we can protects personal information and strengthens privacy and security of medical information by allowing only authorized physicians to check medical records of the old patient.

사고현장을 목격한 사람은 119와 환자를 신속히 연결해 주는데 아주 중요한 역할을 한다. 왜냐하면 응급상황을 인식하고 환자를 도와주는 사람은 바로 주위 사람들이기 때문이다. 그러므로 다음에 열거하는 사항에 따라 현장사람들은 신속, 정확하게 행동하여야 한다. 또한 무조건적인 피해자의 병원 이송이 아니라 위험지역의 환자를 접근 가능하고 안전한 지역으로 옮기고 현장에서의 피해자를 돌보는 것이 중요하다.

The entry of an aging society require a safety of senior citizens against emergency. However, a home and a residence of senior citizens should not consider a characteristic of safety and the unfortunate accidents could happen in the house or the residence. Especially if the elders live alone then they have a help function using a call button in a bathroom or a closed area. But, a sliding or an overbalance in a bathroom or a closed area of a home may happen suddenly how can require a help in real time. That is a very serious accident to senior citizens. In this paper, we developed the context-aware system using the various sensors for collecting the data which is an activities of daily living of elders and we designed the recognition method using case-based reasoning for detecting the anomaly and the emergency context in the bathroom or the closed area in house. After that, if the anomaly or the emergency are detected then it call to a family or a relative or an administration in real-time.

This paper describes user context awareness system, which is one of the most essential technologies in various application services of ubiquitous computing. The proposed system used two-akial accelerometer, embedded in SenseWear(R)PRO2 Armband (BodyMedia). When it was worn on the right upper arm of the experiment subjects, MAD (mean of absolute difference) value of the sensor data was calculated to quantify the amount of the wear's activity. Using this data, PC-based fuzzy inference system was realized to distinguish human motion states, such as, lying, sitting, walking and running and to recognize the restricted emergency situations. In laboratory experiment, the amount of activities for tying, sitting, walking and running were 0.204 g/s, 0.373 g/s, 2.808 g/s and 16.243 g/s respectively. The recognition rates of human motion states were 96.7 %, 93.0 %, 95.2 % and 98.4 % respectively for lying, sitting, walking and running. The recognition rate of restricted emergency situation was 100%.
