Internet of Things (IoT) offers a seamless platform to connect people and objects to one another for enriching and making our lives easier. This vision carries us from compute-based centralized schemes to a more distributed environment offering a vast amount of applications such as smart wearables, smart home, smart mobility, and smart cities. In this paper we discuss applicability of IoT in healthcare...
In this paper, we present the design of a wearable photoplethysmography (PPG) system, R-band for acquiring the PPG signals. PPG signals are influenced by the respiration or breathing process and hence can be used for estimation of respiration rate. R-Band detects the PPG signal that is routed to a Bluetooth low energy device such as a nearbyplaced smartphone via microprocessor. Further, we developed...
This study considers the situation where computational loads are transferred to edge devices and single edge device is not enough. The co-operative sensing, analysis and transmission between several edge nodes helps in enhancing scalability in Fog computing frameworks. The present study uses the positive case of malaria vector borne disease affected information from 2001-2014 of Maharashtra state,...
The concurrent popularity of wearable sensors and Internet-of-Things (IoT) brings significant benefits to body sensor networks (BSN) that could communicate with the cloud computing platforms for bringing interoperability in health and wellness monitoring. We designed Pulse-Glasses that are cloud-connected, wearable, smart eyeglasses for unobtrusive and continuous heart rate (HR) monitoring. We 3D-printed...
Wearable devices like smartwatches are becoming an accepted way to monitor a person's health stats such a heartrate and physical activity. This paper will explain how to develop a do-it-yourself (DIY), smart wristband to perform photoplethysmography (PPG), also known as pulse oximetry. The designed Pulseband acquires PPG signals and estimates heart rate (HR) in real-time. HR estimates can be transmitted...
