A Conceptual Framework for Athlete Health Using AIoT, Wearables, and Personalized Performance Intelligence

Advancing athlete health requires a shift from reactive sports medicine toward proactive, personalized, and longitudinal care. This article presents a conceptual framework for an Interdisciplinary AI Center for Longevity and Well-Being designed to integrate Artificial Intelligence of Things (AIoT), wearable sensing, and multimodal analytics into a unified athlete health ecosystem. The manuscript contextualizes the proposed framework with relevant literature across key technical domains and presents a reference edge–fog–cloud architecture together with a proof-of-concept dashboard pipeline to illustrate technical feasibility. Within this framework, heterogeneous data streams from wearable physiological sensors, biomechanical devices, non-invasive biomarker monitors, and environmental trackers are organized to support multimodal analysis and individualized performance intelligence. The paper outlines five target application domains: real-time health monitoring, injury risk assessment, performance optimization, holistic well-being evaluation, and longevity-oriented health management. Privacy-preserving and interpretable AI components, including federated learning, differential privacy, and explainability-oriented design considerations, are presented as key architectural priorities, while several elements are explicitly identified as future development directions. Rather than claiming full real-world validation, this work provides an interdisciplinary blueprint and prototype-informed foundation for future research and implementation at the intersection of computer science, biomedical engineering, and sports science.
