Abstract
Remote vital signs monitoring is attracting more and more attention as the population in developed countries is aging, and as the chronic diseases appear more frequently in the population. Smart mobile technologies and miniaturization in electronics have enabled fast development of systems for remote monitoring of vital signs. This paper presents a hardware solution of a mobile device for remote monitoring and shows that the mentioned issues can be addressed and efficiently solved. The project focused on long term measurement of heart rate and the Intelligent Primer Nurse project are introduced in the paper.
