Abstract(s)
Biofeedback data acquisition is an extremely
important task in body sensor networks (BSNs). Data collected
by sensors need to be processed in order to be shown in an easy
and meaningful way for the user. The use of mobile devices may
support and offer new user experiences. When connected to a
BSN they can aggregate and process data collected by each
sensor, providing a mobile solution for a healthcare system. This
mobility offers a better patients' quality of life allowing a regular
daily routine and always under monitoring. This paper proposes
a Symbian-based mobile solution for intra-body temperature
monitoring. Mobile device connects wirelessly to an intra-vaginal
temperature sensor and interacts with sensor for temperature
data collection and monitoring. This system helps women to
detect their fertile and ovulation periods by the increasing of
their intra-vaginal temperature. The mobile system was tested
and validated with success and it is available for regular use.
