Abstract :
In order to develop the technology for measuring and accumulating individuals´ behaviors in a daily life, we designed and constructed an intelligent house. In this house, 167 sensors made from 15 kinds are installed. By using these sensors, we can acquire personal information such as location, posture and individual identification of home appliances and environment in the house. When we examined sensors´ signals in 13 kinds of behavior in an each room, the accuracy rate of identification of each behavior are about 70%.
