'HealthPals' wearable health monitoring system - ‘HealthPals’ Healthpals is a ’parasitic‘ wearable health monitoring system. It is called ’parasitic‘ while all the health monitoring sensors are powered by micro generators that harvest warmth and vibrations from the human body and turn them into electricity. The system provides unobtrusive distant monitoring of patients with chronic diseases and postoperative patients (which, among others, include patients with heart diseases, sleep disorders, hypertension, epilepsy, post-stroke treated patients etc.) and allows them to freely move and take part in the social life. Healtpals health monitoring set consists of several elements: A bracelet and a ring equipped with SPO2 sensor, temperature and a blood pressure sensor. ’Headphones‘ equipped with EEG sensors for brainwave monitoring. A collar equipped with ECG sensors for heart monitoring, accelerator and a breathing sensor. Another ECG sensor can be placed on the chest for more precise ECG data collection. The devices send all the data retrieved from the sensors onto the ’personal server‘ (the patient’s Smartphone or personal computer) via Bluetooth, which, in turn, sends it through WIFI to the medical server to be analysed by the doctors. Each piece of the set is equipped with a vibration energy harvester, a thermoelectric generator and a capacitor for energy storage.
