Abstract(in English) Proposed watching systems do not need to put sensors on the human body, for recognizing normal or abnormal status of the senior citizens. Conventional wear-free watching systems use live-cameras or home-electric-appliances, but they have problems of privacy or habit dependencies. Also wearable watching systems have problems of inconvenience for users life. our final objective is to provide the watching system using sheet type piezoelectric sensors, which can sense even if they are lying or sitting on the floor, bed or chair. The sensor data will be sent into care management cloud systems, and if those sensors find abnormal status of care recipients, notification mail will be sent for care givers. This report shows the trial system which have basic functions.
