This document discusses the need for a sensing industry in healthcare. It notes that healthcare is shifting from a specialist-centered model to a distributed patient-centered model. The document argues that by 2020, health will become a sensing industry that is global, context-aware, dynamically configurable, and a fusion of the virtual and real. It maintains that future networked care will involve decentralizing intelligence and dynamic configurability through initiatives like FI-STAR and FI-WARE.
