HIoT applications and device features

The healthcare applications and system have adopted several types of innovation technologies/devices to enhance the performance of healthcare services delivered. Most of these systems and applications are contributing to use IoT or smart technology devices to perform better advantage in healthcare services. These IoT applications and healthcare devices are called HIoT. The healthcare device implements dedicated sensor, and holds high collecting precision advantage, while it is also having several disadvantages such as insufficient portability, high cost and usability.

This type of device possesses the following features:

Wearability: Most of the HIoT applications offer sensing on the human body so they collect data exactly and take vital signs of the human body as collecting targets. Thus, most of the existing medical health devices make the wearability as the basic requirement of collection of human body vital signs. On this vein, the users feel more comfortable and can be enhanced and the accuracy of the collected health data can be guaranteed through the collecting procedure.

Long working time: The ways of dedicated health collecting data are several for instance universal mobile devices, wearable devices, pedometer, etc. The purpose of these devices is to collect data from the human body for a relatively long time that requires high power and capability.

Constancy or stability: HIoT has high ability to collect data very normally even though the users are under strenuous exercise or in an extreme environment.

Low participation degree of users: The functionality of HIoT applications and devices are relatively independent, as well as most HIoT devices do not require the intervention of users during the collecting data procedure. In addition, the users need to start up the power source only, and the HIoT device will start collecting data.

Possessing data interim storage mechanism: The dimensions and weight of HIoT maybe limited strictly to meet the wearable feature. Thus, most HIoT devices do not integrate the data transmission module but can select the data storage module with relatively small dimensions and adopt the data interim storage mechanism to store the collected data in advance, and then transmit the data through other network access devices accurately.
