Home sensors enable seniors to live independently - Science Nation

The video discusses the use of sensor technology in elderly care, focusing on George Hage, a resident at TigerPlace Apartments. Researchers at the University of Missouri are testing sensors to monitor health changes in older adults. These sensors can detect subtle changes in movement and vital signs, alerting caregivers to potential health issues. The technology aims to keep seniors healthy and independent at home. It is expected to be available for anyone with chronic health conditions, offering noninvasive monitoring solutions.
