Body based sensor network and its applications
- 1. Body Based Sensor Network And Its Applications Presented By : Shashank Gupta ZHCET(AMU)
- 2. Outline • Motivation • What is Body Based Sensor Network? • How it works? • Different types of sensors used • Application Areas • Future Applications • Conclusions • References
- 3. Why should we know about Body Based Sensor Network? • Cardiovascular Disease is the main cause of death in the UK and it accounts for 39% of all death each year. • Among patients who had heart attacks, about 30% of them died even before reaching to the hospital • To get Rid of sudden attacks like heart attack • Late diagnostics may lead to death • To decrease number of death we need early diagnosis. • Reduction in cost of medical assistance
- 4. Why should we know about Body Based Sensor Network? • Provide the best suggestion whom to contact with • It provides a unified way of controlling several sensors by a single monitor device • To enhance the overall performance of the sports man
- 6. What is Body Based Sensor Network?
- 7. WHAT IS BODY BASED SENSOR NETWORK ? Formal Definition by IEEE 802.15 “A Communication standard optimized for low power devices and operation on, in or around the human body (but not limited to humans) to serve a variety of applications including medical, consumer electronics / personal entertainment and other”
- 9. Types of sensors used • Motion sensor • Temperature sensor • Pulse oximeter • Accelerometer • ECG sensor
- 11. • Medical Applications • Fitness Monitoring • Real time detection of diseases • ECG : Electrocardiogram • PPG : Photoplethysmogram • Body temperature • Blood pressure • Galvanic skin response (GSR) • Heart rate • It is impossible for pacemaker to communicate without wires, we actually need wireless network hence BBSN Application Areas
- 12. For example : ECG a) Wearable server b) Central server c) Call centre
- 13. Future Applications • The future market of WBAN is growing rapidly in the field of medical as well as in entertainment industry • We believe than BBSN systems will allow a dramatic shift in the way people think about and manage their health • This provide more proactive healthcare that will not only improve the quality of life, but also reduce healthcare costs.
- 14. Challenges • Ethical issues like privacy • Limited energy resources • Lower Data rates • Communication failures • Signal and path performance • Usability • Operational issues
- 15. Conclusions • Body Based sensor Network Provide a unique platform for the development of health care and well being. • Most wearable fitness products are not designed to be worn all the time, and those that are awkward, but BBSN devices are very small and wearable. • A WBAN is expected to be a very useful technology with potential to offer a wide range of benefits to patients, medical personnel and society through continuous monitoring and early detection of possible problems. • The current technological evolutions will bring us closer to a fully operational WBAN that acts as an enabler for improving the Quality of Life
