Abstract
The Internet of Things (IoT) with smartphone technologies has vast applications in solving the problems of heart diseases in patients needing care. With wireless sensors and smart devices, remote monitoring can identify the real-time physical status of heart patients under many normal physical activities. In this research, we designed and developed an IoT system to monitor heart rate. A wearable ECG sensor is used to monitor the pulse patterns and smartphone built-in sensors— accelerometer and GPS—- are used to measure the body acceleration and location information of the user. Data is collected via a Low Energy (LE) Bluetooth communication network between the ECG sensor and smartphone for further processing in the phone. Experimentation and verification is conducted on a number of test subjects with different test scenarios including sitting, walking, jogging, and running. The sensor outputs, with heart rate acquired from the experiment, are presented in this research. An algorithm for activity classification is implemented and discussed in the results.
