sounds, and physical layout, can help maintain HEALTH, enhance
physical activity, reduce stress, reduce falls, improve moods, and
even act as memory aids to those whose memory is failing. It will show
how wearable HEALTH AND REAL-time ENVIRONMENTAL SENSORS ARE HELPING
THE ELDERLY EXTEND INDEPENDENCE WHILE AGING IN PLACE.SPEAKER:
