Super aging society such as Japan would need tele-healthcare systems for home medical care to suppress medical cost inflation. In this situation, we have developed a tele-healthcare system for end-of life decision at home using a wireless electrocardiograph combined with a smartphone and a sphygmogram signal extracted from an ordinary video camera. The experimental results have indicated that long term monitoring through the smartphone and a server will provide rich information on the patient's terminal status for doctors in remote locations. However, it is necessary to collect many clinical data to predict the timing of end-of-life more precisely.
