최근 고령화 사회로 들어섬에 따라 치매 노인 환자가 해가 갈수록 급증하고 나아가 치매환자 뿐만 아니라 보호가 필요한 미취학 아동, 장애인 등 실종사고가 빈번하게 발생하고 있다. 자신이 길을 잃었다는 것을 인지하지 못하고 잇따라 2차 사고가 발생하는 경우가 많다. 이렇게 사고가 빈번하게 발생하게 되면 보호자의 입장에서는 같이 외출을 하거나 피보호자를 혼자 두고 외출을 하는 것이 많은 부담이 될 수밖에 없다고 판단하였다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 현재 위치추적을 기반으로 한 다양한 제품들이 있지만 통신사간의 복잡한 가입절차, 실종 시 2차사고 예방을 위한 대안이 없는 것 등 그 제품들을 사용자가 사용하는데 있어서 많은 제약이 있었다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 아두이노를 활용하여 이러한 문제점을 개선하여 피보호자의 위치를 스마트폰의 어플리케이션으로 실시간 확인할 수 있도록 하고 보호자가 설정한 일정 반경의 기준점을 벗어나게 되었을 때 경보음 알림과 동시에 긴급기관 신고전화 기능을 추가하여 빠른 초동조치로 연이은 2차 사고를 예방할 수 있게 함으로써 보호자가 외출 시 심리적으로 안심할 수 있는 GPS위치 추적시스템에 대해 기술하였다.

예전부터 IT 기술을 이용한 장애인의 복지 증진을 위한 많은 연구들이 진행되고 있다. 최근에는 거리에 설치된 수많은 모바일 센서들을 활용하여 라이프 로그를 저장하고 네트워크를 통하여 서버에 전송함으로써 로그를 저장한 후, 이러한 라이프 로그를 분석함으로써 해당 사용자가 위험에 노출되어 있는 지를 판단 할 수 있게 되는 시스템이 많이 제안되고 있다. 특히 장애인의 경우 위험에 노출되기 쉬우며 매번 보조자들이 함께 다녀야 한다는 부담 때문에 외출을 두려워하는 경향이 있다. 따라서 이러한 부담감을 덜어주어야 심리적으로도 육체적으로도 더 나은 삶을 살아갈 수 있게 유도할 수 있을 것이다. 본 연구는 이러한 심리적 부담감을 덜어주기 위한 방법으로 장애인의 라이프 로그를 기록하고 분석할 수 있는 시스템을 제안한다.
