Orientador(es)
Resumo(s)
The world population is aging. Aging brings several health issues that society is challenged to overcome. There is a pressing need to have effective solutions to monitor the health conditions of the elderly population. Keeping track of elderly health conditions can prevent some diseases and allow early diagnosis and treatment, enhancing the elderly’s quality of life. Biometric sensors are a great solution because they do not just measure health conditions but are able to provide a picture of how an individual is. Studies have already shown the potential of using biometric data for researching new health prevention approaches, improving selected aspects of health care, and personalizing hyper medication. The ultimate goal would be to achieve the so-called personal medicine [1]. These considerations invite an examination of the state of the art of the technologies used on this topic.
