The aging country population structure has caused huge long-term influences. On the basis of the past experience of life, many elders need life care and health care. Even elders with capability of taking care of himself, they still suffer from inconvenience in their daily life. The people who need to be taken care also include persons with disabilities or injuries, e.g., the people whose need to wheelchairs. These people could suffer from difficulties even for switching lights actions in homes. In this work, we design an application of intelligent home devices based on Amazon Echo system. We use the Alexa Skill Kit to develop a voice control system for the home appliances. The system employs RFID for security authentication to keep strangers from manipulating private devices. We also integrate fall detection with the system to monitor the safety of elderly or patients. When a fall is detected, the system informs the caregiver immediately for promptly medical care.
