VoiceCare: A Voice-Interactive Cognitive Assistant on a Smartwatch for Monitoring and Assisting Daily Healthcare
Abstract:
Following several health activities in daily life (e.g., medication/exercise plans, handwashing, physiological monitoring) properly often requires monitoring and assistance support. Although the emergent smartwatch and wearable technologies have opened great opportunities to monitor these activities in the wild, existing smartwatch-based systems do not interactively guide the user and also lacks comprehensiveness to provide knowledge related to this set of daily activities. To overcome these limitations of the state-of-the-art, we present Voice Care, a wearable cognitive assistant on a smartwatch for daily life healthcare that interactively assists the user and monitors adherence to these activities. We conduct an extensive user study and thorough evaluation on collected data to show that VoiceCare effectively brings multiple health sensing solutions into one system while operating with minimal resource usage and helps improve the user conformance to daily health.
