Sending your Smart Phone to Med School. E-Health Sensor Platform V2.0 for Arduino and Raspberry Pi [Biometric / Medical Applications] This information can be used to monitor in real time the state of a patient or to get sensitive data in order to be subsequently analysed for medical diagnosis.

e-Health Sensor Platform V2.0 for Arduino and Raspberry Pi [Biometric / Medical Applications]

Biometric information gathered can be wirelessly sent using any of the 6 connectivity options available: Wi-Fi, 3G, GPRS, Bluetooth, 802.15.4 and ZigBee depending on the application. If real time image diagnosis is needed a camera can be attached to the 3G module in order to send photos and videos of the patient to a medical diagnosis center. Data can be sent to the Cloud in order to perform permanent storage or visualized in real time by sending the data directly to a laptop or Smartphone. iPhone and Android applications have been designed in order to easily see the patient's information. Pulse and Oxygen in Blood (SPO2) SPO2 sensor features Pulse oximetry a noninvasive method of indicating the arterial oxygen saturation of functional hemoglobin. Connecting the sensor Connect the module in the e-Health sensor platform.

Initializing by. Metria Wearable Sensor. Metria™ Informed Health is a portfolio of digital health products being developed by Vancive Medical Technologies™, an Avery Dennison business, to monitor and transmit physiological information for various health, wellness and clinical applications.

Metria Wearable Sensor

In general, Metria products have three main components to them: Sensing: This is the actual product or device that adheres to the skin to enable sensing of the user or patient. It typically incorporates multiple sensors to collect various physiological signals. Along with the sensors, there are additional components such as on board processing and memory. It also incorporates some means of communication (for example, USB or Bluetooth) to relay the collected signals out.

Vancive Medical Technologies has leveraged its expertise in skin and materials science to develop a sensing product that is comfortable to wear, and one that enhances the user’s quality of life. Visualizing: This refers to the part where the collected metrics are visualized. Un scanner cérébral portable. First heart rate monitor to utilize new bluetooth technology and iPhone sync hits the market.

The start of January has some exciting new technologies on the horizon.

First heart rate monitor to utilize new bluetooth technology and iPhone sync hits the market

Recently, Wahoo Fitness announced their new product, BlueHR — a fitness heart rate monitor — can sync to your iPhone 4s via bluetooth and without the need for addition adaptors. All users have to do with the BlueHR device is to strap it around their sternum, and they will be able to monitor stats such as their heart rate and the number of calories they are burning via their smartphone. It currently uses Bluetooth 4.0 technology, and as such, the only smartphone that currently has that capability is the iPhone 4S. We wrote an in-depth article about Bluetooth 4.0 when the iPhone 4s was released, commenting on how it could be a boom for mobile health devices due to the following features of the protocol: Ultra-low peak, average and idle mode power consumptionAbility to run for years on standard coin-cell batteriesLow costMulti-vendor interoperabilityEnhanced range The price is tentatively set at $79.99: WahooFitness.
