title: An Internet-based Tele-homecare System with Trinomial Protocol.
abstract: Since the population-aging problem is increasingly affecting the society, health monitoring at home with interactive teleoperation is of interest to researchers and healthcare practitioners. Thus, we develop a low-cost and platform-independent telecare system to support the aged and disable people for long-term health care online monitoring. A trinomial protocol and multi-modal human-machine interfaces are designed to decrease the influence of time delay in human interface of teleoperation and give the operator a robust and safe control of the robot. Experimental results show that the system can provide stable and reliable homecare service between physicians, nurses and patients.
