Abstract
Because of rapid global aging, more than 14% of older people face psychological problems such as depression and anxiety, which directly affect their physical health and quality of life. To deal with these problems in time, we propose a design scheme of mental health services for the elderly based on smart home technology. The rapid development of smart home technology offers an unprecedented opportunity to improve the health of older adults. Our design is designed to meet the needs of the elderly for intelligent health care, through a comprehensive understanding of the psychological state of elderly patients, to provide timely diagnosis and treatment support and medical services. In the smart home environment, we use non-contact sensing technology to collect the mental state data of elderly users in real time while using machine learning methods to predict and evaluate. With the elderly users as the centre, we have established a dynamic monitoring mechanism for the mental health of the elderly. This system not only provides elderly users with real-time mental health monitoring and professional psychological guidance, depression prevention and management, remote consultation and safety monitoring and other all-round services, but also effectively reduces the cost of traditional psychological diagnosis and treatment services, and solves the problem of shortage and inequality of medical resources. By proposing this service design scheme, we hope to improve the mental health problems of the elderly, thereby optimizing the quality of life of the elderly, so that they can enjoy a healthier and happier old age.
