Abstract

Healthcare sensors and wearables are changing the game when it comes to devices providing real-time monitoring, early detection, preventive measures, and tailored care. These technological breakthroughs blend leading edge sensors with AI recommendations to screen vital signs detects abnormalities and predicts potential diseases. Smartwatches, fitness trackers, medical-grade wearables, etc., serve to enhance patient engagement and put users in the driver's seat with their health. These technologies enable remote healthcare, minimizing the need for repeated visits to clinics and making healthcare more accessible to low-income communities. They provide enhanced mobility and communication for individuals with disabilities in human augmentation, swiftly filling the gap between physical impairment and daily function. Wearable technologies are ushering in a new era of healthcare as they reinforce the switch from reactive to preventive care through the integration of IoT and data analytics, bringing a paradigm shift towards more focused and patient-centric healthcare.
