Biography/History:

Subhas Mukhopadhyay is professor of Mechanical and Electronics Engineering at Macquarie University, New South Wales, Australia, with a research interest in applications of sensors, sensor technology and networks, especially in the area of health-care. Tarikul Islam has many years of teaching and research experience, with specialism in instrumentation and measurement, sensors arrays and signal processing.

Summary:

With the ability to monitor a vast range of physiological parameters, combined with wireless technology, wireless sensor networks and the Internet of Things, wearable sensors are revolutionising the field of digital health monitoring. In addition to applications in health monitoring, such technology is being used to monitor the state of our living environment and even the quality of our foods and the wellbeing of livestock. Written for scientists, engineers and practitioners by an international collection of authors, this book reviews the fundamentals of wearable sensors, their function, design, fabrication and implementation. Their application and advanced aspects including interface electronics and signal processing for easy interpretation of data, data transmission, data networking, data security, and privacy are also included.
