Abstract

This paper gives an overview of the recent results from the Human++ research program, which targets the realization of miniaturized, intelligent and autonomous wireless sensor nodes for body area networks. It combines expertise in micro-power harvesting techniques, ultra-low-power radio, ultra-low-power DSP and sensors and actuators. This paper illustrates how technological breakthroughs in these areas lead to the emergence of new health monitoring concepts.
