Book cover Internet of Things and Big Data Technologies for Next Generation Healthcare

Part of the book series: Studies in Big Data ((SBD,volume 23))

Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a physical device along with other items network that embedded with software, electronics, network connectivity, and sensors to collect objects in order to exchange data. The IoT impact in healthcare is still in its initial development phases. The IoT system has several layers that lead to implementation challenges where many engaged devices have sensors to collect data. Each has its manufacturer own exclusive protocols. These protocols using software environment associated with privacy and security raise new challenges in the IoT technology. This current chapter attempts to understand and review the IoT concept and healthcare applications to realize superior healthcare with affordable costs. The chapter included in brief the IoT functionality and its association with the sensing and wireless techniques to implement the required healthcare applications.
