device is used as a patch with thermo-responsive micro-needles for monitoring blood level
glucose and delivers medication through micro needle. (Hui Won Yun, Seoul National
University).
Smart wrist band (Figure 8.4) is used to measure pulse rate and calories burning
throughout the day. It has OLED display for text and calendar notifications. It can track
the duration and quality of sleep and wake you up with a silent vibrating alarm. Overall,
it can monitor the fitness level to improve and personalize cardio fitness score with personalized breathing sessions based on one’s heart rate. Figure 8.5 shows a remote and
digital ECG monitoring system. The ECG signals are sent to remote devices from which
analytics are possible through distributed and parallel computing. Figure 8.6 shows the
sleep tracker that can even record even minute movements during sleep. The broad strip
is placed below the bed and a comfortable wrist-based sleep monitoring device is set
up for sleep detection. It works based on the LED light at the bed-side unit which is
passed through fiber optic cables. When the measure of light supply is lost, it indicates
the movement of the person in the bed.
Another dimension of this is independent living which is adopted for smart route
planning, concerning mobility, orientation, and intelligent guidance for indoor and outdoor environments. It is useful in public buildings such as hospitals, museums, offices,
shopping malls, and for pedestrians and transportation. AAL has also given a solution
