Managing Hormones for Health & Aging Lab Tour

Aging Lab Tour
IBM Research has opened a new “Aging in Place” environment in the Austin THINKLab that is designed to mimic the types of interactions elders may have in their homes. We instrumented our environment with consumer-grade Internet of Things sensors to study how to identify changes in a Elder's physical conditions or anomalies in environmental readings. With this information, when certain changes are detected, we will be able to alert caregivers if someone needs immediate attention.
