“…Both techniques enable cardiorespiratory monitoring without using elements that come into contact with the body of the patient [155]. A Bluetooth module consists of a coil made of printed circuit tracks, and a photoplethysmography optical sensor (composed of LEDs) processed by a microcontroller.…”

The following work presents an overview of smart sensors and sensor fusion targeted at biomedical applications and sports areas. In this work, the integration of these areas is demonstrated, promoting a reflection about techniques and applications to collect, quantify and qualify some physical variables associated with the human body. These techniques are presented in various biomedical and sports applications, which cover areas related to diagnostics, rehabilitation, physical monitoring, and the development of performance in athletes, among others. Although some applications are described in only one of two fields of study (biomedicine and sports), it is very likely that the same application fits in both, with small peculiarities or adaptations. To illustrate the contemporaneity of applications, an analysis of specialized papers published in the last six years has been made. In this context, the main characteristic of this review is to present the largest quantity of relevant examples of sensor fusion and smart sensors focusing on their utilization and proposals, without deeply addressing one specific system or technique, to the detriment of the others.

“…Baek et al [8] integrated ECG, PPG and ballistocardiography (BCG) sensors into a chair to acquire heart rate and blood pressure. Teichmann et al are working on a combination of optical coupling (PPG) and electromagnetic coupling, which is used to capture heart rate and respiration rate [9]. This concept, together with a mechanical coupling (BCG) has recently been integrated into a dental chair [10] and seems to be a promising approach.…”

Abstract-The connected chair is part of the Supportive Personal Coach in the KogniHome project, which offers guided fitness training, relaxation, and assistive functions. The chair comes with integrated sensors, actuators, control logic and wireless transceiver. The sensors are able to measure respiration and heart rate as well as the user's actions. The actuators are used to adjust the chair to the actual user's needs and the transceiver is used to connect wireless sensor nodes and to exchange data with a base station. Additional value is generated by connecting the chair to the smart home environment, which enables and expands novel features and applications.

“…Microcontroller is used as the central processing unit and the information is transferred to the mobile phone using the Bluetooth technology. The device works in a non-contact way and can be kept in pocket due its small size and flexibility [5]. Android based patient monitoring is proposed in [7] this system can detect multi parameters of the body such as ECG, heart rate, blood pressure, temperature and pulse oximeter this system has advantages such as it is portable, mobile, compact, consumes less power, stores the data in database.…”

“…Vital parameters should be monitored in such a way that the standard of living of an individual remains unaffected. The monitoring systems should have the provision of providing feedback in real time [5].Taking into consideration the changing demands of monitoring systems various health monitoring systems have been developed in recent times.…”
