 What is E- Health
• eHealth involves a broad group of activities that use electronic means
to deliver health-related information, resources and services:
• it is the use of information and communication technologies (ICT) for
health.

IoT in Healthcare
 Change Lives with Internet of Things (IoT)
• The Internet of Things (IoT) is making it possible to connect
patients and devices to enable actionable insights that
improve patient care and help control costs.

•
 develop and manufacture embedded technologies for use
throughout IoT-driven healthcare systems, including:

• Wireless or RFID sensor-based that collect patient

data

•Microcontrollers that process, analyze and

wirelessly communicate the data

•Microprocessors that enable rich graphical user

interfaces

•Healthcare-specific gateways through which sensor

data is further analyzed and sent to the cloud
Advantages of using IoT
in healthcare
 Health Monitoring
Track vitals and monitor health status
indicators of your patients remotely to
improve outcomes
Internet of Things (IoT) or systems are at work today,
gathering patient medical data that was never before
available for analysis and delivering care to people for whom
care wasn’t previously accessible. In these ways, IoT-driven
systems are making it possible to radically reduce costs and
improve health by increasing the availability and quality of
care.
Wearables
 IoT and VISION Localization Systems support
Alzheimer’s patients
The location device comprises a discrete GPS watch, equipped with a safety lock, SIM
and battery. It is worn by the person with dementia, and is coupled to an easy-to-use
portable receiver for family members. The career need only press the “locate” button
on the receiver and in less than 30 seconds they will receive the exact position of the
Alzheimer’s sufferer displayed on a map. There are no limits on distance.
 Independent living
• IoT-powered assisted living solutions bridge the gap
transforming services to enable people to live
independently in and out of their homes for longer with
more peace of mind while reducing costs in end to end
patient solutions.
 IoT helps preventing drink driving
• This innovative product is an immobilizer device that
measures breath alcohol levels. If alcohol is detected in the
driver's breath, the vehicle's engine will not start.
Some exampels of IoT Actions in
Healthcare
Smart sensors, which combine a sensor and a microcontroller, make
it possible to harness the power of the IoT for healthcare by:
 accurately measuring,
 monitoring and analyzing variety of health status indicators.

levels of glucose
Smart sensors can: oxygen saturation in the blood.
incorporated into pill bottles and connected to the network
to indicate whether a patient has taken a scheduled dose of
medication.
patients suffering from cardiovascular diseases who are being treated
with digitalis could be monitored around the clock to prevent drug
intoxication. Arrhythmias that are randomly seen on an EKG could be
easily detected, and EKG data indicating heart hypoxemia could lead to
faster detection of cardiac issues. The data collected may also enable a
more preventive approach to healthcare by providing information for
people to make healthier choices.
Role of IoT in Agriculture
Role of IoT in Agriculture
• According to the UN Food and Agriculture Organization, in
order to feed the growing population of the Earth, the
world will need to produce 70% more food in 2050 than it
did in 2006

To meet this demand, farmers and agricultural companies are turning to

the Internet of Things for analytics and greater production capabilities.
 All these can be done using smart phones and IoT devices

• Internet of Things (IoT) can play big role in increasing productivity,

obtaining huge global market, idea about recent trends of crops.

• Today many agricultural industries turned to adopt IoT technology

for smart farming to enhance efficiency,

• productivity, global market and other features such as minimum

human intervention, time and cost etc.

• The advancement in the technology ensures that the sensors are

getting smaller, sophisticated and more economic.
• The smart agriculture market is expected to
reach $18.45 Billion in 2022,

• BI estimates that 75 million IoT devices will

be shipped for agricultural uses in 2020
• Internet of things, with its real-time, accurate and shared
characteristics, will bring great changes to the agricultural
supply chain and provide a critical technology for
establishing a smooth flow of agricultural logistics
 The key advantages of using IoT in
enhancing farming are as follows:
• 1. Water management can be efficiently done using IoT
with no wastage of water with using sensors.
2. IoT helps to smart monitor the land
3. It increases productivity, reduce manual work,
reduce time and makes farming more efficient.
4. Crop monitoring can be easily done to observe the
growth of crop .
5. Soil management such as PH level, Moisture content etc can be
identified easily so that farmer can sown seeds according to soil level.
6. Sensors and RFID chips aids to recognize the diseases occurred in
plants and crops. RFID tags send the EPC (information) to the reader
and are shared across the internet. The farmer or scientist can access
this information from a remote place and take necessary actions,
Automatically crops can be protected from coming diseases.
7. Crop sales will be increased in global market. Farmer can easily
connected to the global market without restriction of any
geographical area.
