Intelligent M2M network using healthcare sensors

Abstract

Machine to Machine (M2M), communication between the machines without or with the least-human involvement, is going to be an important part of life. Healthcare is one of the areas on which M2M is going to play major roles. At present time, healthcare sensors monitor patient information and notify remote doctors. However, if we can integrate more intelligence in healthcare sensors, then these can sense patient's emergency condition by themselves and can notify doctor before severe condition. In this context, we have developed intelligent mobile sensor agents in a healthcare scenario in a M2M context. This sensor agent can sense blood pressure of a patient and can notify remote doctor, with the help of an intelligent adapter and a manager in a M2M healthcare scenario.
