Introduction

What is IOT?

The IOT is a giant network of connected things and people – all of which collect
and share data about the way they are used and about the environment around
them. And have the ability to transfer data over a network without requiring
human-to-human or human-to- computer interaction
Introduction (Cont’)

How does it work?

● Collecting and sending information
● Receiving and acting on information.
● Doing both.

Benefits of IOT

IOT offers a number of benefits to organizations, enabling them to:

● Monitor their overall business processes.

● Improve the customer experience.
● Save time and money.
● Enhance employee productivity.
● Integrate and adapt business models.
● Make better business decisions.
● Generate more revenue.
Applications and use of IOT

● Smart Home.
● Wearables.
● Cars.
● Smart Cities.
● Agriculture.
● Smart Retail.
Applications and use of IOT: Smart
Retail (Amazon Go)
Problem Definition: IOT in Healthcare
● Connected healthcare yet remains the sleeping giant of the Internet of
Things applications. The concept of connected healthcare system and
smart medical devices bears enormous potential not just for companies,
but also for the well-being of people in general.

● Research shows IOT in healthcare will be massive in coming years.

IOT in healthcare is aimed at empowering people to live healthier life
by wearing connected devices.

● The collected data will help in personalized analysis of an

individual’s health and provide tailor made strategies to combat
illness.

Fall detection system for elderly people using IOT and Big Data.
Fall detection system for elderly people
using IOT and Big Data:
Problem Definition
Health problems of the elderly people have become increasingly
urgent
and falls are the most common accidents whose severity may often
require medical attention. According to the WHO(World Health
Organization), approximately 30% of the people over 65 suffer
accidentally one or more falls per year, and for the people over 80
years this rate increases to reach 50%.
Proposed Solution

A fall detection system consists of four main components: A

wearable device, a wireless communication network, a Smart IOT
gateway and Cloud services. Each component plays an important
role in the detection of falls.
Proposed Solution (Cont)
Methodology

1. Model Creation.
2. Model Training.
3. Falls Prediction.
4. Emergency Alerts.
Results

For evaluation of the proposed system, a total of 12 controlled

experiments were performed: 9 experiments of falls and 3
experiments of ADLs(Activities of daily living). Three subjects
(volunteers) between the ages of 40 and 60 participated in the
experiments. The wearable device was placed on the volunteers’
waist. The falls were simulated in no particular order.
System accuracy is 91.67% in detecting falls and ADLs.
Conclusion

The Internet of Things is a new paradigm helping the adult

population to improve their quality of life by facilitating a
pervasive and more personalized form of care.

Secured Smart Healthcare
Monitoring System Based on IOT:
Problem Definition
Existing System are measuring the health parameters of the
patient and send the parameters through the Zigbee, Bluetooth
Communication protocol. These protocols have short
communication ranges to transmit the data. At any time, the
doctor the health parameters can’t send to the doctor.
Proposed Solution

Transmitting the data through the webpage or mobile

application to continuous monitoring of the patients over
internet.
Methodology: Block Diagram
Methodology: System Components

1. PIC.
2. Temperature Sensor.
3. Heartbeat Sensor.
4. Respiration Sensor.
5. Blood Oxygen Level.
6. IOT.
Conclusion

With the wide use of internet this work is focused to implement

the internet technology to establish a system which would
communicate through internet for better health.
