Due to advancements in the field of medicine, the elderly population has significantly increased around the world. Since the young population is also working, elderly people are left alone at home. Problems such as Alzheimer's, sleepwalking, and decreased mobility in these elderly individuals living alone reduce the quality of life of both individuals and their families. This study aims to develop a specialized tracking system to address issues faced by elderly individuals, such as getting lost while living alone. Nowadays, thanks to GPS technology, it is possible to monitor individuals easily even from our phones. It will be easier to monitor places in the house where there is a high probability of falling and by using an infrared sensor to control the entrances and exits of the house. It is clearly seen that older people prefer simple rather than complex technological products when using them. For this reason, a design has been made that will be sufficient to carry with you without having to make any adjustments in the mobile application.
