A wearable heat-stroke-detection device utilizing physical sensors and fuzzy theory was developed to monitor exercising individuals and provide early alerts to prevent heat stroke.
Does a wearable heat-stroke-detection device detect features of heat stroke and provide early notification for people exercising in hot environments?
A newly designed wearable device using multiple physiological sensors and fuzzy logic may help detect and prevent heat stroke during exercise in hot environments.
Heat stroke can be potentially damaging for people while exercising in hot environments. To prevent this dangerous situation, we designed a wearable heat-stroke-detection device (WHDD) with early notification ability. First, we used several physical sensors, such as galvanic skin response (GSR), heart beat, and body temperature, to acquire medical data from exercising people. In addition, we designed risk evaluation functional components that were based on fuzzy theory to detect the features of heat stroke for users. If a dangerous situation is detected, then the device will activate the alert function to remind the user to respond adequately to avoid heat stroke.
Chen et al. (Fri,) conducted a other in Heat stroke. Wearable heat-stroke-detection device (WHDD) was evaluated on Heat stroke detection and early notification. A wearable heat-stroke-detection device utilizing physical sensors and fuzzy theory was developed to monitor exercising individuals and provide early alerts to prevent heat stroke.
