چکیده
Today, the population is aging, and this is becoming a problem for current health systems, as each day it has to invest more money in treating the elderly. Rehabilitation of elderly patients with physical disabilities is one of these problems that everyday incur greater overhead to health care. This paper provides a gerontechnology-based solution by proposing a multisensory system for rehabilitation in an intelligent environment. The proposal enables helping needed people and thus reducing the cost of health care.
