Non-invasive wearable health monitoring devices for health monitoring and diagnostics

Continuous monitoring of human health and activity using wearable devices will be a key technology in the sensor network society for years to come. Recent advances in the development of the miniaturized optoelectronics components with low energy consumption have opened a new perspective for the implementation of non-invasive wearable health monitoring sensors for personalised medicine. In this paper we will review our recent development of wearable sensors based on Laser Doppler flowmetry and Fluorescence spectroscopy and demonstrate potential applications for such devices.
