摘要：The United Nations estimates that about 15 percent of the world’s population lives with some type of disability. Equally important is the increasing life expectancy rate of elderly people. People falling in any of these categories face great difficulty in living an independent life and have to be dependent on others. Internet-of-Things (IoT) presents immense potential in solving these problems. IoT is a concept by which everyday objects can communicate with each other via a network. This enables us to collect and store the data from these devices in the Cloud. Although there are existing systems that help to solve some of these problems; however, a comprehensive system is missing. In this paper, we propose a unified system ALED (Assisted Living for the Elderly and Disabled) using Google Brillo and Weave platform to solve both of these problems. The system provides a solution by collecting data from IoT devices (e.g., smart sensors, wearable devices, tags) and utilizes the Cloud to process the information from database. The system enables the elderly and disabled to live their life independently and at the same time make it more pleasing
