Overview

Field testing demonstrates a new monitoring framework for health and location tracking of care-dependent individuals, indicating its potential impact.

Key Points

The study aims to develop and validate a low-power wearable IoMT system for monitoring health and location in neurodegenerative patients.
Developed a wearable device with GNSS and BLE technology.
Integrated LoRa communication for data transmission to the cloud.
Conducted field tests to assess GNSS accuracy and communication efficiency.
Implemented a geofencing alert system.
Created a visualization web interface for real-time and historical data.
Achieved high accuracy in GNSS tracking of individuals.
Demonstrated effective long-range communication with minimal signal loss.
Field tests showed timely alerts when boundaries were crossed.
