A Health Care Monitoring Terminal Based on Android Smart Phone

With the promotion of mobile communication, sensor technology and smart phone, mobile health services is developed all around the world. This paper presents a mobile health service terminal based on Android smart phone. The physiological signals are collected by body sensors and then sent to the smart phone for real-time displaying and stored via Bluetooth. Besides, it allows the smart phone communicates with the remote server. The practical applications show the terminal can be used in the mobile health services.
