Concepts and developments of an wearable system - an IoT approach

Abstract

This paper presents the concepts and the development process of a new and innovative wearable system able both to track the position and to analyze the movements of the head. This wearable system was developed as a main platform for a large class of applications in fields like: biomedical, medical, entertainment, military, automotive, consumer field etc. In the proposed system, the head position and movements are acquired in non-contact mode and by using some smart clothes that embed several capacitive sensors in the collar. The entire system was developed to be ultralow power and easy cloud-connected.
