Wearable health sensors could monitor the wearer's health and surrounding environment in real-time. With the development of sensor and operating system hardware technology, the functions of wearable devices have been gradually enriched with more diversified forms and more accurate physiological indicators. These sensors are moving towards high precision, continuity, and comfort, making great contributions to improving personalized health care. At the same time, in the context of the rapid development of the Internet of Things, the ubiquitous regulatory capabilities have been released. Some sensor chips are equipped with data readout and signal conditioning circuits, and a wireless communication module for transmitting data to computer equipment. At the same time, for data analysis of wearable health sensors, most companies use artificial neural networks (ANN). In addition, artificial neural networks could help users effectively get relevant health feedback. Through the physiological response of the human body, various sensors worn could effectively transmit data to the control unit, which analyzes the data and provides feedback of the health value to the user through the computer. This is the working principle of wearable sensors for health. This article focuses on wearable biosensors used for healthcare monitoring in different situations, as well as the development, technology, business, ethics, and future of wearable sensors for health monitoring.
可穿戴健康传感器可以实时监测佩戴者的健康状况和周围环境。随着传感器和操作系统硬件技术的发展,可穿戴设备的功能逐渐得到丰富,形式更加多样化,生理指标也更加准确。这些传感器正在朝着高精度、连续性和舒适性的方向发展,为改善个性化医疗保健做出了巨大贡献。同时,在物联网快速发展的背景下,无处不在的监管能力得到了释放。一些传感器芯片配备了数据读取和信号调理电路,以及用于将数据传输到计算机设备的无线通信模块。同时,对于可穿戴健康传感器的数据分析,大多数公司使用人工神经网络(ANN)。此外,人工神经网络可以帮助用户有效地获得相关健康反馈。通过人体的生理反应,各种佩戴的传感器可以有效地将数据传输到控制单元,该控制单元通过计算机分析数据,并为用户提供健康值的反馈。这就是可穿戴传感器用于健康监测的工作原理。本文重点介绍了用于不同情况下医疗保健监测的可穿戴生物传感器,以及健康监测用可穿戴传感器的发展、技术、商业、伦理和未来。
