The Evolution of Smart Wrist Band by Using Sensors

Abstract

In recent years, the integration of various electronic components and sensors with textiles aimed at giving additional functions has become more common. In this respect the wrist band can be made functional while retaining the aesthetic appeal and style at lower cost which is in high demand. Smart textiles are fabrics that have been designed and manufactured to include technologies that provide the wearer with increased functionality. Smart textiles can be produced by knitting, weaving and embroidering with conductive threads, conductive metal coating and screen printing that can be used to develop wearable electronic textiles but amongst these, the use of conductive inks onto textiles has gained interest due to the ease of their use and manufacturing scalability. The emergence of wireless technologies and advancement in on-body sensor design can enable change in the conventional healthcare system, replacing it with wearable ones, centered on the individual. Wearable monitoring systems can provide continuous physiological data, as well as better information regarding the general health of individuals. Thus, such vital-sign monitoring systems will reduce healthcare costs by disease prevention and enhance the quality of life. This dissertation is aimed at developing smart band by incorporating vital-sign monitoring systems. Using this assembly, the recent progress in non-invasive monitoring technologies for chronic disease management is reviewed. Devices and techniques for monitoring pulse rate and body temperatures are discussed in particular. For our research conductive ink and conductive fabrics are presented additionally. The main aim of this project is to produce a wearable wrist band which detects vital body parameters like pulse rate and temperature using sensors, conductive ink and conductive fabric. Finally, the recorded temperature and pulse rate readings are sent to mobile app via Wi-Fi

A Theoretical Concept of an Innovative and Sustainable Product Based on an Unconventional Approach to Design Development

“…The control systems worn on the wrist continuously provide physiological data and information about the general state of health of the individual. Systems that monitor vital signs reduce health-related costs and improve the quality of life by preventing disease [76].…”

“…A csuklón viselhető megfigyelőrendszerek folyamatos élettani adatokat, valamint az egyének általános egészségi állapotára vonatkozó információkat nyújtanak. A létfontosságú élettani jeleket figyelő rendszerek a betegségek megelőzését segítik, csökkentik az egészségügyi költségeket és javítják az életminőséget (SRIKRISHNAN et al 2020).…”
