The healthcare ecosystem is witnessing a huge transformation lately; propelled by improved care and patient outcomes as the critical drivers. Briefly put, organizations (providers, hospitals and all) are leveraging the potential of Internet of Things, to empower their people, patients to take control of their own health. In a subtle way, redefining the way people, sensors, apps, devices and wearables can interact with each other in a secure environment, and take the healthcare experience to the next level.
A recent survey by Forrester Consulting suggests 90% of the Healthcare IT departments are ready to adapt IoT based solutions. And, 52% of the surveyed respondents are already incorporating IoT technology.
With IoT as a powerful enabler, innovative apps and wearables are taking strong roots in the healthcare ecosystem; health bands, fitness devices, calorie meters, heart rate monitors, to name a few. Such healthcare devices are used by physicians to record patient’s biometric information as they deliver exceptional patient monitoring and management results on-the-go.
The use of artificial intelligence in healthcare has the potential to assist healthcare providers in many aspects of patient care and administrative processes as well as improve patient outcomes.
AI analyzes data throughout a healthcare system to mine, automate and predict processes. Some of the use cases are :
1. Early Diagnosis of diseases
2. Improved clinical trial processes
3. Mental health apps etc.
The Internet of Things (IoT) is a term used to describe a network of interconnected devices that are able to communicate with each other and share data. These devices can be anything from smart appliances in your home to sensors in a manufacturing plant or even wearable devices like fitness trackers. The applications of IoT are numerous and continue to expand as technology advances. In this article, we'll explore some of the most important and interesting applications of IoT.
Smart Homes and Buildings
One of the most well-known applications of IoT is in smart homes and buildings. IoT devices can be used to control everything from temperature and lighting to security systems and home entertainment systems. Smart home devices can be controlled remotely through smartphones or other devices, and can even be automated based on the user's preferences and routines.
Smart buildings take this concept a step further, with IoT sensors and systems used to optimize energy usage, monitor air quality, and even control elevators and other building systems. These applications can help reduce energy costs, improve safety, and enhance the overall user experience.
Healthcare
IoT has a variety of applications in the healthcare industry, from wearable devices that monitor vital signs to smart pills that track medication usage. IoT sensors can also be used to monitor patients in hospital settings, allowing medical staff to detect changes in a patient's condition more quickly and respond accordingly.
In addition, IoT devices can be used for remote patient monitoring, allowing patients to receive care in their own homes rather than having to travel to a medical facility. This can improve patient outcomes and reduce healthcare costs.
Agriculture
IoT sensors and systems are increasingly being used in the agricultural industry to optimize crop yields and reduce waste. These sensors can be used to monitor soil moisture, temperature, and nutrient levels, allowing farmers to make more informed decisions about when and how to water and fertilize their crops.
In addition, IoT systems can be used to track the movement and health of livestock, helping farmers to detect and respond to potential health issues more quickly.
Manufacturing
IoT is also being used in the manufacturing industry to improve efficiency and reduce waste. IoT sensors can be used to monitor equipment and machinery, providing real-time data on performance and identifying potential maintenance issues before they become more serious
What Is The Difference Between Weak (Narrow) And Strong (General) Artificial ...Bernard Marr
Did you know there are two forms of artificial intelligence? Weak or narrow artificial intelligence (AI) is what we encounter daily today. Strong or general AI is the next phase where machines can think like humans without being programmed by humans. Learn the differences between weak and strong AI.
IIoT is often presented as a revolution that is changing the face of industry in a profound manner. In reality, it is an evolution that has its origins in technologies and functionalities developed by visionary automation suppliers more than 15 years ago. As the necessary global standards mature, it may well take another 15 years to realise the full potential of IIoT. Over this period of time the changes to the industry will be far reaching. The good news is that end users and machine builders can now leverage their existing investments in technology and people while taking advantage of available new IIoT technologies.
Introducing IIoT solutions using a “wrap & re-use” approach, rather than a “rip & replace” approach will enable greater business control. In addition, this measured approach will drive the evolution towards a smart manufacturing enterprise that is more efficient, safer, and sustainable. The emergence of the IIoT megatrend has created both hope and confusion among stakeholders responsible for operating industrial plants. Much of the early hype was focused on the impact of technological advancements on existing automation platforms.

Wearables devices market and technologyKevin Huang
What is wearable technology?
Simply put, it’s technology that you incorporate into things you wear on a day-to-day basis, and it could be anything from a smart watch, augmented reality glasses, or even a personal health monitor in the form of a bracelet.
The idea is that technology will increasingly become more part of our daily lives, and it will become less intrusive, as it will be part of our clothing, and sometimes even part of our bodies!
Wearable tech presents a fascinating field to study. I have conducted some researches and hope you can also learn more about this high growth market.

Design Considerations for Wearable Technology for Sport and Human PerformanceBrandon Larson
This document is a white paper written a few years ago on where wearable technology would need to move to in order to provide high levels of value to athletes and general consumers alike. The world of wearables is a challenging area and there is a need for standards in communications, sensor interoperability, and an approach to analytics and insights that is framed as collaborative intelligence (man and machine) vs dumb tool, smart person (man vs machine) as we operate today. The document states "Confidential" in the lower right corner on several pages, but is not confidential information. This is open information used to spread ideas and hopefully progress.

I'm Sahil Rohilla, and I love to make weird stuff out of electronics! It is my passion. For this project, I'd like to take you through my process of creating Smart Glove, a functional cell phone that you wear on your hand. I see it as my first attempt at giving something back to the online communities of makers I've been learning from
The idea came into my mind when one of my friends had to remove his gloves again and again to attend his phone calls in a touch screen phone in winter. So I thought why not to build something that we can wear every time and that can act as an alternate for our cellphone
After 18 days of research and 2 prototypes I was finally able to build a calling glove that I named as smart glove. The dial pad is in our fingers like we used to count digits on our fingers in our childhood the speaker and the microphone are in thumb and little finger respectively. Though the model is still in testing process but is still working outstandingly
Any of the processes involved in this project can easily be applied to any project in the realm of hacked electronics, DIY hardware, or digital fabrication. That said, I hope you enjoy learning about: Smart Glove.

HCID 2014: Developing jewellery for the future. Dan Moller, Kovert Designs.City University London
Wearable Tech refers to electronic devices worn on the body. Almost all devices released to date are in the form of rubber fitness bands or smartwatches, both worn on the wrist. Whilst in its infancy, Wearable Tech has some innovative potential uses. Imagine being able to control any device in your home by the snap of a finger; unlock your door, car or computer just by touching it; be alerted if your stress level, heart rate or blood sugar level is abnormal or even allow your doctor to remotely administer medication if he sees your vitals drop.
We’re on the cusp of a new wave of electronics which will re-define the way people use technology. But fundamentally, people need to want to wear these devices. Whilst Samsung and Apple will no doubt take care of the early adopters and technology advocates who care about functionality and convenience, the fashion conscious consumer has yet to be accounted for. This is the gap in the market that Kovert will exploit through being not only a wearable tech company but also a fashion brand.
Ambient Intelligence (AmI) refers to a vision of the future information society where intelligent interfaces enable people and devices to interact with each other and with the environment. Ambient intelligence (AmI) research builds upon advances in sensors and sensor networks, pervasive computing, and artificial intelligence. Because these contributing fields have experienced tremendous growth in the last few years, AmI research has strengthened and expanded. Because AmI research is maturing, the resulting technologies promise to revolutionaries daily human life by making people's surroundings edible and adaptive.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
