LiveVitals - A low power approach to remote elder monitoring

The current demographic evolution of the world population, especially in developed countries, is constantly exerting an ever growing pressure on the medical system. As the average life expectancy in developed countries is on the rise, and medical breakthroughs in treating severe conditions increase the life expectancy of elder patients, the need for automatic monitoring systems for elder patients is higher the even before - driven by the pressure to monitor a larger number of patients with a relative low number of qualified personnel available. The current proposed solutions aims to offer a balance between relevance of measured parameters, correlation of vital signs, autonomy, portability, ease of use and final market price.
