  Ubiquitous in-home health monitoring systems have become popular in recent
years due to the rise of digital health technologies and the growing demand for
remote health monitoring. These systems enable individuals to increase their
independence by allowing them to monitor their health from the home and by
allowing more control over their well-being. In this study, we perform a
comprehensive survey on this topic by reviewing a large number of literature in
the area. We investigate these systems from various aspects, namely sensing
technologies, communication technologies, intelligent and computing systems,
and application areas. Specifically, we provide an overview of in-home health
monitoring systems and identify their main components. We then present each
component and discuss its role within in-home health monitoring systems. In
addition, we provide an overview of the practical use of ubiquitous
technologies in the home for health monitoring. Finally, we identify the main
challenges and limitations based on the existing literature and provide eight
recommendations for potential future research directions toward the development
of in-home health monitoring systems. We conclude that despite extensive
research on various components needed for the development of effective in-home
health monitoring systems, the development of effective in-home health
monitoring systems still requires further investigation.
