Homelog is a continuous collection of digital records of various entities (including family members) about their existence states and activity experiences occurring in a home from the past to the present. The homelog can be regarded as a special home-oriented database whose data is captured automatically via various ubiquitous devices such as cameras, microphones, sensors, RFID tags, etc., which are fixed somewhere, attached on some objects, or carried by users or robots. The homelog system enables knowing what have happened at home and further makes recommendations or advice to parents. This paper presents our study on how to record various kinds of data using different sensors, and utilize the sensed data, i.e., homelog, for parents to be aware of what their kids did in a certain period. Since the raw data directly from sensors are massive, heterogeneous and illegible, one important research issue is to analyze the raw sensed data and form semantic data. Our study is focused on processing the homelog by using agent serviceware and summarizing a kid’s activities in a visualized representation for parents.
