From June to this month, the city invested a total of 1,342 million won in the 'Smart Senior Center' project. Through this, 66 senior centers were equipped with a two-way smart video system, a smart healthcare system, and an Internet of Things (IoT)-based safety management system.
With the introduction of these systems, the senior centers can now communicate with each other through the two-way video system and manage their health, including monitoring blood pressure. The IoT-based safety system also enables real-time detection and response to potential risks for the elderly within the centers.
In October, the city conducted a pilot program using the video system, offering classes such as singing, health exercises, and cognitive training four times a week. The pilot program received a positive response, with an average of 60 senior centers and over 200 elderly participants per day.
