Abstract
To meet the requirements of high quality of people’s life, a remote healthcare service with Internet of things (IoTs) is developed in this paper. The proposed system includes microcomputer, physiological sensors and corresponding signal preprocessing circuit, and wireless transmitting module etc. Sensors are used to detect the various vital signals. The collected data is transmitted to mobile device using Bluetooth. The doctors get patient’s physiological parameters through the GPRS which connects the mobile device and medical center. As a result, doctor can give diagnostic message to the patient without face to face. The detecting device is designed as a watch form which is wrist-worn enclosure, unobtrusive and low power consumption. An android mobile app is also designed to transmit data as well as display the collected data. The experiment validates the performance of the proposed system.
Highlights
The lack of medical resource has being become an important social issue due to population increasing and ageing
The internet of things (IoTs) and the wearable devices promote the development of telemedicine [2]
The wearable device combines the sensors and processing devices into a single device, which is suitable for monitor
Summary
The lack of medical resource (such as the shortage of doctors and hospitals) has being become an important social issue due to population increasing and ageing. In order to solve this issue, the concept of telemedicine is proposed. The medical system runs more efficiently than before, especially monitors the patients with the chronic diseases. More and more advanced technologies and conceptions are proposed. The internet of things (IoTs) and the wearable devices promote the development of telemedicine [2]. IoTs is a good medium in telemedicine, which integrates equipment and expertise in the medical field together [3]. The wearable device combines the sensors and processing devices into a single device, which is suitable for monitor. The patient can take wearable device everywhere without any limitation
