Nederland heeft te maken met vergrijzing, die het gevolg is van de babyboom in de periode van 1946-1955 en het feit dat meer mensen langer leven, door de preventie van ziekten (CBS, 2015). Mede hierdoor, maar ook door de economische crisis van de afgelopen jaren zal het zorgstelsel drastisch veranderen …

Insulin resistance is common among children with overweight and obesity. However, knowledge about glucose fluctuations in these children is scarce. This study aims to evaluate glycaemic profiles in children with overweight and obesity in free-living conditions, and to examine the association between …

Smart homes, home automation and ambient-assisted living are terms used to describe technological systems that enrich our living environment and provide means to support care, facilitate well-being and improve comfort. This handbook provides an overview of the domain from the perspective of health care …

LoRa sensoren zijn sensoren waarbij de waarde die de sensor meet via LoRa verzonden wordt. LoRa is een techniek waarbij berichten met een laagvermogen over een lange afstand verzonden kunnen worden. LoRa staat dan ook voor ‘Long Range Low Power’. Als een LoRa sensor data verstuurt zal deze worden ontvangen …

BACKGROUND: ICT based solutions are increasingly introduced for active and healthy ageing. In this context continuous monitoring of older adults with domestic sensor systems has been suggested to provide important information about their functional health. However, there is not yet a solid model for …

When designing for FPGAs a lot of knowledge about hardware design and FPGA technology is required. In order to try and reduce the required knowledge, TNO researches two manners of simplifying that design process. One of which is OpenCL, the other is the HDL Coder from The MathWorks. A graduation project …

Sensor systems can be deployed in the homes of older adults living alone for functional health assessments. Their information is very useful for health care specialists. The problem lies in developing person independent models while facing a large variability in behavior. We address this problem by, …

This paper presents a study of sensor data from a person who developed Alzheimer’s disease during a 4-year monitoring period and who is monitored with simple ambient sensors in her home. Our aim is to find data analysis methods that reveal relevant changes in the sensor pattern that occur before the …

Wat zijn belangrijke succesfactoren om onderzoek, onderwijs en ondernemen bij elkaar te brengen, zó dat 'het klikt'. De uitdaging voor de toekomst van bedrijven in de smart factoryligt bij data science: het omzetten van ruwe (sensor) data naar (zinnige) informatie en kennis, waarmee producten en diensten …
