This tutorial will discuss the current state of the art assisted living technologies for older adults. One of the current challenging health care problems is the increasing aging population. The population of the US, as well as the other industrialized countries is aging rapidly. By 2030, 20% of the US population will be over the age of 65. The average life expectancy is projected to increase to age 81 by 2030. This aging population is going to bring new challenges to our society, such as an increase in age-related diseases, rising health care costs, shortage of health care professionals, and lack of quality care for everyone. In this tutorial, we will explore intelligent technologies and methods that can help health care professionals to provide better quality care for the older adults, monitor their health conditions in place, as well as technologies that allow the older adults to live more independently.
