Abstract

In embodiments of the present invention, systems and methods for remotely monitoring an individual may include providing a sensor integrated in a monitoring object at a first location where the monitoring object may be configured as a picture frame. A sensor may be associated with an environment of an individual at the first location. The sensor may be associated with a network. Sensor data may be processed to obtain monitoring information for the activity of the individual in the environment. The monitoring information may be transmitted over the network from the first location to a receiving object at a second location, where the receiving object may be configured as a picture frame.
