Abstract

With a rapidly aging population, automated health monitoring systems provide an effective means of reducing the resulting healthcare professional shortage. To this end, we at the IMPACT lab at Arizona State University are developing Ayushman, a sensor network based health monitoring infrastructure and testbed. Ayushman provides a medical monitoring system that is dependable, energy-e.cient, secure, and collects real-time health data in diverse scenarios, from home based monitoring to disaster relief. Further, Ayushman is designed to be a testbed which allows researchers to test their communication protocols and systems in a realistic environment.
