Impacts of the Elderly-Oriented Residential Buildings in Northern Communities of the Elderly Based on Artificial Intelligence Technology

Most of elderly people suffer from a series of unhealthy mental and emotional states; therefore, it is crucial to provide suitable living environment and ageing service based on the psychological demands of the elderly. With the rapid development of economy and society, Artificial Intelligence Technology (AI) have also been applied to the residential design field of elderly care communities. In China, the traditional ageing housing is too narrow for the structural design, causing some problems of mental health; the current indoor space and outdoor environment can’t match the elderly’s need; the special climate environment in the northern region has a great influence on the design of ageing housing. This study analyses the impacts of ageing residential design based on AI of the elderly in Changchun, China. 312 elderly people living in ageing community are involved. Through the analysis of different types of the space, the needs and perception of the elderly, the results find the elderly is more satisfied with the activity area division, privacy protection and travel convenience of the elderly-oriented residential buildings. The design of home-based elderly-oriented residential buildings can effectively reduce the incidence of depression and anxiety of the elderly and improve their mental behaviour. Finally, this paper puts forward the living environment and space optimization strategies for the health of the elderly of ageing communities in northern China and put forward the application of AI in elderly care facilities.
