Wearable Internet of Things: Concept, Architectural Components and Promises for Person-Centered Healthcare

Abstract: The proliferation of mobile devices, ubiquitous internet, and cloud computing has sparked a new era of Internet of Things (IoT), thus allowing researchers to create applicationspecific solutions based on the interconnection between physical objects and the internet. Recently, wearable devices are rapidly emerging and forming a new segment-"Wearable IoT (WIoT)" due to their capability of sensing, computing and communication. Future generations of WIoT promise to transform the healthcare sector, wherein individu… Show more

“…In general, IoT devices combine sensing, computation, and communication techniques to deliver remote data collection and system control. Today, these "things" range from everyday consumer electronics to specialized industrial systems [1], such as fitness-tracking wristwatches [2], transport logistics [3], and smart cars [4] to manufacturing [5] and smart grids [6]. Contingent on implementation, an IoT device may be used for real-time alerts, data archiving, trend analysis, and forecasting by leveraging related technologies such as cloud services [7].…”

“…The need is increasing for these small, powerful batteries, as advances in fabrication techniques push the limits of miniaturization in robotics, [1] haptics, [2] wearable and biomedical technologies, [3] and mobile computing for the Internet of Things. [4] Unfortunately, current fabrication methods for lithium-ion cells force the end user to make a choice between high energy density and lightweight batteries (Figure 1(a)). Supercapacitors can provide even higher power density (> 10 kW/kg), but have very short discharge times (0.1-5 s), which limits the range of potential applications.…”
