A scoping review of wearable and remote sensor technologies for real-time driver health monitoring highlights their potential to bridge the gap between health monitoring and driver safety.
This scoping review highlights the potential of wearable and remote sensor technologies to bridge the gap between health monitoring and driver safety.
The need for creative solutions in the real-time monitoring of health is rapidly increasing, especially in light of health incidents in relation to drivers of motor vehicles. A sensor-based health monitoring system provides an integrated mechanism for diagnosing and managing in real time, enabling the detection, prediction, and recommendation of treatment and the prevention of disease onset. The real-time monitoring of driver's health represents a significant advancement in the assurance of driver safety and well-being. From fitness trackers to advanced biosensors, these devices have not only made healthcare more accessible but have also transformed how people interact with their health data. The purpose of this scoping review is to systematically collect and evaluate information from publications on driver health monitoring systems to provide a comprehensive overview of the current state of research on wearable or remote sensor technologies for driver health monitoring. It aims to identify knowledge gaps that need to be addressed and suggest future research directions that will help to fill these gaps. This approach involves the topic of vehicle safety and healthcare and will contribute to the advancement of this field. By focusing on the real-time monitoring of health parameters in an automotive context, this review highlights the potential of different types of technologies to bridge the gap between health monitoring and driver safety.
