Medical Data Processing and Analysis for Remote Health and Activities Monitoring
2019
Recent developments in sensor technology, wearable computing, Internet of Things (IoT), and wireless communication have given rise to research in ubiquitous healthcare and remote monitoring of human’s health and activities. Health monitoring systems involve processing and analysis of data retrieved from smartphones, smart watches, smart bracelets, as well as various sensors and wearable devices. Such systems enable continuous monitoring of patients psychological and health conditions by sensing and transmitting measurements such as heart rate, electrocardiogram, body temperature, respiratory rate, chest sounds, or blood pressure. Pervasive healthcare, as a relevant application domain in thi…
WiP: Smart services for an augmented campus
2018
Technological progress in recent years has allowed the design of new intelligent learning systems in smart environments aiming to facilitate users' lives. As a consequence, besides making use of traditional sensors for monitoring the quantities of interest, such systems can also benefit from information obtained from the users' smart devices, which can now be considered as additional sensing tools. In this article, we present the design of a novel system based on the fog computing paradigm that can improve the services offered to users on a smart campus by using different smart devices, i.e., smartphones, smartwatches, tablets, smartcameras and so on. In particular, we will describe a syste…
Auxilum Medicine: A Cloud Based Platform for Real-Time Monitoring Medical Devices
2015
Nowadays, time is a very valuable resource and can make the difference between life and death. Having knowledge about this fact we decided to deal with one of the most important aspects of contemporary medicine, EMS (emergency medical services) response time. Modern systems that encourage intelligent communication methods between medical devices and doctors are a must in ubiquitous health care environments. Auxilum Medicine fosters a triple-win situation regarding the relationship between medical institutions, doctors and patients. Emergency patients should be treated with utmost care because their life is hanging by a thread if nobody is present to take immediate action. We are presenting …
Uutisia ranteessa? : älykellojen soveltuvuus journalismiin. Loppuraportti
2016
Tämän tutkimushankkeen päätarkoituksena oli selvittää älykellojen soveltuvuus journalismiin, sen uutena sisällönjulkaisupaikkana sekä työvälineenä. Keskeisinä tiedonhankinnan menetelminä olivat journalistisen ja tutkimuksellisen aineiston jatkuva monitorointi, asiantuntijahaastattelut (N=6) sekä älykellojen testaus koeryhmien avulla. Vähintään kuukauden mittaisen testijakson teki yhteensä yhdeksän testaajaa. Tutkimuksen keskeisenä tuloksena oli, että älykellot eivät ole ainakaan vielä vuonna 2016 nousseet uudeksi varteenotettavaksi viestinnän laitekategoriaksi eivätkä ne siten ole korvaamassa esimerkiksi älypuhelimia. Suurin hyöty älykelloista on breaking news -uutistilanteissa, jolloin uut…
