Abstract
Telecare, and particularly lifestyle monitoring,
currently relies on the ability to detect and respond to
changes in individual behaviour using data derived from
sensors around the home. This means that a significant
aspect of behaviour, that of an individuals emotional
state, is not accounted for in reaching a conclusion as to
the form of response required. The linked concepts of
emotive and adaptive computing offer an opportunity to
include information about emotional state and the paper
considers how current developments in this area have
the potential to be integrated within telecare and other
areas of eHealth. In doing so, it looks at the development
of and current state of the art of both emotive and
adaptive computing, including its conceptual
background, and places them into an overall eHealth
context for application and development.
