Using IoT devices for movement detection in medical environment — Proof of concept

摘要

The article describes importance of usage an IoT and wearable devices in medical environment. It provides information about main neurological complications, connected with abnormal and uncontrolled body movements. It is focused mainly on sleep diseases and freezing of gait (symptom of Parkinson's disease). It makes a brief overview of existing solutions. There are some solutions working in different ways for detecting sleep quality and FoG. In the second part, it shows a solution for general data collection for multi-purpose usage based on wearable and IoT devices. It also presents the first results from this solution, what proves its functionality and shows the next ways of research.
