Standardization activities exist for a range of e-health services concerning personal and public health, and many standard results are available. Yet these standards sometimes cover the same use area and it is difficult to select appropriate ones. This paper discusses e-health standardization activities and an e-health ecosystem targeting public health in anticipation of its continuous evolution....
We present a remote healthcare consultancy system that enables healthcare workers to identify noncommunicable diseases in unreached communities. The healthcare system combines medical sensors with mobile health and is called a Portable Health Clinic. The Portable Health Clinic fits into a briefcase and is operated by the healthcare worker. The goal of this research is to empower the healthcare worker...
The increase of non communicable diseases (NCDs) will change the direction of health services to emphasize the role of preventive medicine in healthcare services. The first short-range medical body are network (BAN) standard IEEE802.15.6 is expected to be used for secure and user-friendly sensor devices for portable medical equipment. A BAN is an enabler for uploading medical data to a backend system...
We propose an object tracking system for a service robot working in an everyday indoor environment. The system is composed of an intelligent cabinet, a floor sensing system and a data management system. The position of an object can be classified into three areas: 1) in/on furniture, 2) on the floor, 3) held by a human or a robot. Being equipped with a RFID reader and loadcells, the intelligent cabinet...
This paper proposes a new method of measuring position of daily commodities placed on a floor. Picking up an object on a floor will be a typical task for a robot working in our daily life environment. However, it is difficult for a robotic vision to find a small daily life object left on a large floor. The floor surface may have various texture and shadow, while other furniture may obstruct the vision...
Unlinkability, the property that prevents an adversary recognizing whether outputs are from the same user, is an important concept in RFID. There are many proposed schemes that provide unlinkability, however most of the schemes don't consider constraints of the real world. In this paper, we discuss the unlinkability and the real world constraints in RFID systems, and simulate the attack by an adversary...
