This talk introduces our research on pervasive sensing for remote health monitoring. In response to the needs of continuous and engagement-free point of care, we invented a series of passive seismic sensing technologies to monitor human and animal health and activities. For example, BedDot, attached underneath a bed, senses seismograms from heartbeats and movements and estimates vital signs and activities. FloorDot, placed on a floor, senses seismograms generated by foot steps and other activities to identify the intrusions and activities of daily living (ADL). CageDot, placed under an animal cage, monitors animal activities and vital signs via analyzing the seismograms.
