EXPLORING THE WEARABLE AND MOBILE SENSORS FOR SUSTAINABLE AND EFFICIENT HEALTH MONITORING SYSTEMS IN POST COVID-19

ABSTRACT:

Wearable and mobile sensors are embedded in smartphones, smartwatches, and other wearable devices to capture human physiological signals to monitor daily activities and health indicators. Some of these sensors include an accelerometer, temperature, electrocardiogram, pulse-oximeter, gyroscopes pedometer, etc. The outlined sensors and many others embedded in wearable and mobile phones have been used for health monitoring, diagnosis, and detection of illnesses for remote health

management. With the recent outbreak of coronavirus, effective health monitoring has become an essential part of reducing the mortality rate that might occur as a result of underlying illnesses. Hence, this paper presents a comprehensive discussion of wearable sensors and mobile phone sensors technology for health monitoring, especially in the post-COVID-19 era. The combination of single, dual, and multiple sensors integrated within various mobiles or wearable devices provide credibility, reliability, and higher performance in terms of accuracy for monitoring and detecting multiple diseases in the body. In all-clear indications, we discovered that health-based sensors are implanted to handle the issue of health, especially in application areas of wearable and mobile sensors technology. Moreover, an enabled sensors-based sustainable, and efficient health monitoring system provides an important mechanism for real-time diagnosis and management to detect, predict, and suggest appropriate treatment for diseases, and prevent the onset of diseases to minimize death. This is important with the current onset of Coronavirus (COVID-19) disease.
