Research on the less Stress Acquisition Method for the activity Information of actual Residents using the International Standard ECHONET Lite

There are many methods to obtain the activity information of actual residents, and image processing is one of main methods. However, this is less likely to spread of services using the activity information of actual residents, due to privacy issues such as mental stress caused by being monitored by cameras. In this research, we propose the acquisition method for the activity information of actual residents utilizing network home appliances and smart meter that using the international standard ECHONET Lite (ISO/IEO14543-4-3). We report on the experimental results of the propose method and the evaluation results of the subject.
