Abstract
Abstract In order to improve the shortcomings of the traditional monitoring equipment that is difficult to measure the daily physical parameters of the elderly and improve the accuracy of parameter measurement, this article designs wearable devices through the Internet of Things technology and virtual reality technology. With this device, four daily physical parameters of the elderly, such as exercise heart rate, blood pressure, plantar health, and sleep function, are measured. The feasibility of the measurement method and equipment is verified by experiments. The experimental results showed that the accuracy of the measurement method based on the reflective photoplethysmography signal was high, with the mean and difference values of the subjects’ heart rate basically lying around 0 BPM and in good agreement between the estimated heart rate and the reference value. In the blood pressure measurements, the correlation coefficient between the P r s {P}_{rs} estimate and the reference value was 0.81. The estimation accuracy of the device used in the article was high, with the highest correlation coefficient of 0.96 ± 0.02 for subjects’ heart rate at rest, and its estimation error rate was 0.02 ± 0.01. The P n t h {P}_{{n}th} value for subject B8 exceeded the threshold of 0.5 before subject B21, and subject B8 had more severe symptoms, which was consistent with the actual situation. The wearable device was able to identify the subject’s eye features and provide appropriate videos to help subjects with poor sleep quality to fall asleep. The article provides a method and device that facilitates healthcare professionals to make real-time enquiries and receive user health advice.
