A Study on the Ubiquitous Wellbeing System Design and Implementation Using Wireless Bio-Signal Sensor

As pervasive or ubiquitous computing matures, researchers and developers look for areas of application of this promising technology that can improve the quality of our lives. The "healthcare" and "home" is the best environments, so we focused the effective and undeveloped area in ubiquitous healthcare service in home. People spend more time in their homes than in any other space. The home ideally provides a safe, comfortable environment in which to relax, communicate, learn, and be entertained. Because of these reasons home environment is the best place for a chronic disease patient. As the standard of living rises, people are more interested in their health and desire well-being life. However they cannot make sufficient effort regarding their health and life style due to the fast moving working environment. In order to attain their sound life, it is necessary for people to have support from user customized life management service. The most prominent features of this system are rule based clinical decision supporting, life style recommendation based on user\´s vital signs, existence of chronic disease, life pattern and family history, as well as life style enhancement promoting service that induces user to accomplish their mental and physical healthiness based on the recommendations. The prototype system is designed and implemented using smart objects such as smart mirror and smart picture frame. The doctor side application is also built to enable medical doctors to examine systems\´ appropriateness of clinical use.
