Abstract
Health monitoring at home could be an important element of care and support environment for older people. Diversity of diseases and different needs of users require universal design of a home platform. In this work the design of multimodal platform for communication, training and patient monitoring at home is presented and discussed. Two specific problems were investigated: visually guided human-computer interface for immobilized users and GSM-based module for user's home environment monitoring. Results of the camera based eye tracking system shown accepted hit accuracy with longer action time in comparison to traditional mouse. However, user training can highly improve the results. Possible extensions of the tracking and monitoring system are presented.
