VTAMN - A Smart Clothe for Ambulatory Remote Monitoring of Physiological Parameters and Activity

The prototype of a communicating underclothe for medical remote monitoring was realized. It delivers physiological information on the subject (Cardiac Frequency, Breathing Frequency, surface and mid-temperature) as well as the environment and activity parameters (ambient temperature, fall detection). It also enables the automatic data transfer on event, with the localization of the subject.
