Abstract :
The authors discuss and map the main findings resulting from the development of a series of four Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) health monitoring prototypes, under the generic name of MoteCare. A devised a generic framework that can be adapted for healthcare monitoring, both at a patient´s home or in a care facility is proposed.
