Abstract
AbstractPeople are able to explore unfamiliar surroundings with more ease due to navigation devices. Users can now incorporate these systems into handheld devices as a result of recent technological advancements that have increased the popularity and number of people using navigation systems. Due to poor reception of Global Positioning System (GPS) signals and a non-line of sight with orbiting satellites, it is more difficult to navigate within a building using GPS signals. Tracking and navigation within a structure can be accomplished by a handheld device (such as a smartphone or wearable) through the use of a wireless interface such as Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). This type of technology can be used to monitor and guide patients with neurological illnesses, such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD), within the hospital premises. This study describes a system for indoor navigation based on wireless sensors, a mobile health application (mHealth app), and Bluetooth beacons. The study goes into great detail about how the mHealth app interacts with the cloud-based architecture.KeywordsAlzheimer’s diseaseIoTIPSLBSRSSICloud serviceSmart care
