Abstract
The advent of smart infrastructure or Internet of Things (IoT) has enabled scenarios in which objects with unique identifiers can communicate and transfer data over a network without human to human/computer interactions. Incorporating hardware in such networks is so cheap that it has opened the possibility of connecting just about anything from simple nodes to complex, remotely-monitored sensor networks. In the paper, we describe a low-cost scalable and potentially ubiquitous system for indoor remote health monitoring using low energy bluetooth beacons and a smartwatch. Our system was implemented in a rehabilitation facility in Los Angeles and the overall assessments revealed promising results.
