With the development of science and technology, artificial intelligence technology is constantly being improved and optimized, and language recognition functions, image recognition functions, and natural language processing functions can be applied in elderly care. So what can artificial intelligence bring to elderly care? Will artificial intelligence be the future direction? The editor will introduce it below.
What artificial intelligence can bring to elderly care
Discover those unseen falls.
Falling may only be a minor skin injury for young people. But for people over the age of 65, falls have become the leading cause of injury and death. According to statistics, about 40 million elderly people fall in China every year, one-third of whom are elderly people living alone and empty nesters. Artificial intelligence makes elderly care more caring. The aging of the population and the increase in empty-nest families caused by the previous one-child policy have given society a strong growth momentum in demand for the elderly care industry. It is a general trend to closely integrate artificial intelligence with health and elderly care.
Currently, it is a luxury to imagine that robots can completely replace humans in providing care for the elderly. But now, the elderly are no longer isolated from the Internet, and artificial intelligence can provide them with many new experiences. We provide meticulous care for the details of life, such as knowing the whereabouts of the elderly 24 hours a day. Various sensing devices can automatically collect abnormal movement trajectories of the elderly, temperature changes, emergency calls, incontinence, vital signs, etc. It is greatly beneficial for family members and even relatives and friends to take care of the elderly.
Artificial intelligence can bring fundamental changes to the elderly care industry, but it is not a substitute. What the elderly need most is the company and care of their family members.
Will artificial intelligence be the direction of the future?
The first type: daily assistant
Recently, a team has developed an intelligent robot. The robot will be equipped with sensors, fall detectors, temperature detectors, etc., so that artificial intelligence can truly connect with real life, thereby helping the elderly live a more intelligent and portable life.
The second type: medical care
This is care with artificial intelligence, which uses artificial intelligence to combine smart devices with virtual assistants. Use three sensors to monitor the room conditions, which are located in the refrigerator, house entrance, and corridor. This way, you can check the daily activities of the elderly anytime and anywhere, and if there is any situation, an "alarm" will be issued immediately
Third type: Emotional companionship
This type of companion robot should actually be what some empty-nesters need most nowadays, and it is very feasible. This kind of companion robot can recognize human emotions through facial expressions and voice and make decisions. In response, to make the life of the elderly more interesting, it can be said that the research and development of this robot is a major breakthrough in the field of artificial intelligence.
In addition to providing the above intelligent services to the elderly, the Zuoyi Intelligent Elderly Care Platform, which has already begun to implement elderly service projects in this field, has also developed different business plans based on the characteristics of local service providers. Cooperation model to create business models suitable for different industries.
