Internet of Things in Healthcare

Abstract

In the Internet of Things (IoT), devices gather and share information directly with each other and the cloud, making it possible to collect, record and analyze new data streams faster and more accurately. The rapid development of Internet of things (IoT) technology makes it possible for connecting various smart objects together through the Internet and providing more data interoperability methods for application purpose. Recent research shows more potential applications of IoT in information intensive industrial sectors such as healthcare services. In this project, I present an IoT-based system for emergency medical services to demonstrate how to collect, integrate, and interoperate IoT data flexibly in order to provide support to emergency medical services. The IoT has already brought in significant changes in many areas of healthcare. It is rapidly changing the healthcare scenario by focusing on the way people, devices and apps are connected and interact with each other. The idea of this project came to reduce the headache of patient to visit to doctor every time he needs to check his blood pressure, heart beat rate, temperature etc. With the help of my project I am hoping to save the time of both patients and doctors and also to help doctors in emergency scenario as much as possible.
