Real - time monitoring and processing of human physiological parameters

Abstract

An important domain of the computer science is considered the so called ubiquitous and pervasive computing. One of its main application domains, with growing importance, is the monitoring of the human body. It has a strong impact in different areas, such as medicine, transports and sports. In sports, the monitoring of the physiological parameters is important for obtaining performance but also for preventing risking efforts for people which are doing sport for pleasure or for maintaining a good healthy state. For example, the human body monitoring can be done in fitness centers. This paper presents a solution for monitoring and processing human physiological parameters in real - time. A monitoring device is applied to the human body and it transmits wirelessly information codifying the pulse. The application takes over the packets, stores them and offers processing in several forms.
