“…Among others, resistive sensors represent a convenient solution to implement reliable, accurate and low-cost assessments of breathing activity and RR [ 9 , 27 ]. In addition, they can be manufactured as "smart textiles"; thus, it is possible to design highly integrated solutions maximizing the comfort and minimizing the encumbrance of the system itself [ 28 , 29 ]. A commercially available solution for RR monitoring is the SS5LB by BIOPAC systems Inc., which transduces the chest wall deformations using a strain gauge.…”

The continuous and simultaneous monitoring of physiological parameters represents a key aspect in clinical environments, remote monitoring and occupational settings. In this regard, respiratory rate (RR) and heart rate (HR) are correlated with several physiological and pathological conditions of the patients/workers, and with environmental stressors. In this work, we present and validate a wearable device for the continuous monitoring of such parameters. The proposed system embeds four conductive sensors located on the user’s chest which allow retrieving the breathing activity through their deformation induced during cyclic expansion and contraction of the rib cage. For monitoring HR we used an embedded IMU located on the left side of the chest wall. We compared the proposed device in terms of estimating HR and RR against a reference system in three scenarios: sitting, standing and supine. The proposed system reliably estimated both RR and HR, showing low error averaged along subjects in all scenarios. This is the first study focused on the feasibility assessment of a wearable system based on a multi-sensor configuration (i.e., conductive sensors and IMU) for RR and HR monitoring. The promising results encourage the application of this approach in clinical and occupational settings.

“…Mariana Jacob Rodrigues et al (2020) say that measurement in the physiological and environment with regard to the human body is as follows: physiology or biosensors i.e., skin temperature, pressure of blood, pulse rate, breathing, body fluid, sweating, hydrogen, gas, height, weight, movement angle, fat index, skin conductance, accelerometers, physical activity, bone mass; and environment i.e., temperature environment, air flow, density, lighting, humidity (Rodrigues et al, 2020). Toan Dinh et al (2020) say that measurement in the physiological and environment with regard to the human body is as follows: physiology or biosensors i.e., body temperature, pressure of blood, heartbeat, breath, body fluid, sweating, oxygens, glucose, weight, movement angle, skin conductance, accelerometers, physical activity; and environment i.e., temperature environment, air flow, density, lighting, humidity (Dinh et al,2020).

Sports can build both strength and be fun at the same time. When it comes to a professional athlete's victory, the winner will enhance his reputation and can earn a great deal of money. The problem that athletes frequently encounter is traumas, which can happen in games or during training. Today, the technology is very advanced and modernized. Innovations and perceptual devices can be created to monitor, measure, analyze and evaluate data from the information received from the introduction of an intelligent system of evaluation and prediction in terms of safety and risk prevention with regard to athletes, by collecting heart rate data, blood oxygen measurement, air density around the athletes’ body, body temperature and a temperature in the sports training room. This is the point of view and vision of a sports industry leaders, who perceive the opportunity and advantage associated with the competition and training of both amateur and professional athletes, to develop the athlete’s physical potential to achieve international excellence. The study of intelligent sensor technology that is used to support devices that work on the guidelines of Internet of Things (IoT) leading to the development of real time data collecting applications. These are used to process or interpret physiological knowledge for an analysis of results and for the prediction of incoming results. It was found that using intelligent sensing technology which are two main groups of detection and measurement: First, human body function sensing and second, measurement to environment around the body or object, and explained to detail in this article.

Smart piezoelectric materials are of great interest due to their unique properties. Piezoelectric materials can transform mechanical energy into electricity and vice versa. There are mono and polycrystals (piezoceramics), polymers, and composites in the group of piezoelectric materials. Recent years show progress in the applications of piezoelectric materials in biomedical devices due to their biocompatibility and biodegradability. Medical devices such as actuators and sensors, energy harvesting devices, and active scaffolds for neural tissue engineering are continually explored. Sensors and actuators from piezoelectric materials can convert flow rate, pressure, etc., to generate energy or consume it. This paper consists of using smart materials to design medical devices and provide a greater understanding of the piezoelectric effect in the medical industry presently. A greater understanding of piezoelectricity is necessary regarding the future development and industry challenges.
