Wearables, Body Sensor Networks, Smart Portable Devices


Currently, there is a need for an immediate answer to a problem. There are useful ways and tools to help with that. This has taken Wearables, Body Sensor Networks, and Smart Portable Devices from nothing to ubiquitous. It has no signs of stopping down and an ever-increasing social effect.

1. Wearables

It’s a little gadget that’s far more portable than a phone, and you can simply carry it on your person as an accessory.

Monitoring: monitoring chips with built-in GPS to monitor children and the elderly.

Smart tattoos contain flexible electronic sensors to help monitor muscle function, sleep disorders, and heart and brain activity. In addition, it can be used to authenticate data transmission to smartphones or scanners to speed up processing processes.

Safety wearables: used as casual wear. However, when there is a threat or danger, it will issue a warning, turn on a loud alarm, and send a notification (a pre-set message, a recorded voice message with the location of where the device is located with built-in GPS) to someone (friend, family, police, or someone in the ecosystem using the device).
