The paper reports an Internet of Thing (IoT) based health monitoring and tracking system for soldiers. The proposed system can be mounted on the soldier’s body to track their health status and current location using GPS. These information will be transmitted to the control room through IoT. The proposed system comprise of tiny wearable physiological equipment’s, sensors, transmission modules. Hence, with the use of the proposed equipment, it is possible to implement a low cost mechanism to protect the valuable human life on the battlefield

BACKGROUND: Health monitoring is important for early disease diagnosis and will reduce the discomfort and treatment expenses, which is very relevant in terms of prevention. The early diagnosis and treatment of multiple conditions will improve solutions to the patient’s healthcare radically. A concept model for the real-time patient tracking system is the primary goal of the method. The Internet of things (IoT) has made health systems accessible for programs based on the value of patient health. OBJECTIVE: In this paper, the IoT-based cloud computing for patient health monitoring framework (IoT-CCPHM), has been proposed for effective monitoring of the patients. METHOD: The emerging connected sensors and IoT devices monitor and test the cardiac speed, oxygen saturation percentage, body temperature, and patient’s eye movement. The collected data are used in the cloud database to evaluate the patient’s health, and the effects of all measures are stored. The IoT-CCPHM maintains that the medical record is processed in the cloud servers. RESULTS: The experimental results show that patient health monitoring is a reliable way to improve health effectively.

The integration of the Internet of Things (IoT) technology and artificial intelligence has become essential in many aspects of daily life since the expansion of the communications and information field. Healthcare is one area that urgently needs to benefit from these technologies to keep up with the dramatic evolution of communications for contemporary human life. IoT, through wearable devices, provides real-time data related to the measurement of a person’s vital signs of health. However, for this data to become more relevant and valuable, it needs to be linked to other domains. Public transport is a domain related to the daily activity of people who take advantage of the IoT to provide exemplary transport services whose quality of service can greatly affect people’s health. The integration of these two domains offers many benefits, especially when providing services adapted to passengers’ health status, making them safer and healthier. This paper proposes an approach based on an IoT architecture using Semantic Web technologies; it aims to integrate health monitoring in public transport, provide passengers with quality transport services, and ensure continuous health monitoring. The use of Semantic Web technologies overcomes the lack of interoperability due to the heterogeneity of data collected by different devices and generated by two different domains. An experimental study was conducted, and the proposed approach’s results were compared with those obtained by the evaluation of a physician. The results show that the approach is effective and should allow passengers to benefit from appropriate transport services that better match their health status.

Mangrove forests have a special function, namely as a green belt which is certainly very important for human life. Health of forests, especially mangrove forests, is often overlooked regarding their health conditions. The health condition of the mangrove forest is very influential on its sustainability, so to know its health, one of the indicators that can be used is fauna biodiversity. Fauna biodiversity can be known by using the FHM (Forest Health Monitoring) method to determine the diversity and condition of health status. Mangrove forest in Pasir Sakti Sub-District, East Lampung Regency has a diversity of 9 species of birds and 5 types of epifauna diversity. Based on this, the Mangrove Forest of Pasir Sakti District, East Lampung Regency has a good forest health status.

AbstractInformation and Communication Technologies (ICT) have experienced a large application in many fields, such as smart homes, health monitoring, environmental monitoring, and a great number of studies is present in literature. In particular, it is expected that the Internet of Things (IoT) will become increasingly pervasive in everyday life. Among different technologies, devices based on Long Range (LoRa) and LoRaWAN stand out due to their relative low cost, low power consumption and large cover range. In this survey, recent papers investigating applications of LoRa modules have been selected. The different use-cases are presented with a comparison between communication parameters and results obtained.

Monitoring activities are needed if there are symptoms of a disease that require quick action so that the patient's condition does not get worse, for that we need a system that can notify doctors so they can take action. The patient monitoring system in hospitals is generally still carried out conventionally, among others, nurses or doctors come to the patient's room to check on the progress of the patient's condition, this will be a problem, if the number of medical personnel and facilities is insufficient to monitor. Patients who need special attention for patient care, such as monitoring the patient's breathing rate. The use of the internet of things (IOT), as a device that can work without the help of people, can perform tasks and provide easier and real time data, so that they can access output directly. The purpose of this research is to design an inexpensive health monitoring tool based on the Internet of Things (Respiration Parameters) using a piezoelectric sensor and an ESP32 Wi-Fi module. From the results of the module design taken from 10 respondents, obtained that the average measurement high accuracy (17.76 + 0.61) and the average level of stability of the design has a magnitude of 0.4 so that it can be concluded that using a piezoelectric sensor in this series can obtain good accuracy. This the design can be used to monitor a person's respiration in real-time

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to present a development to the hardware and software of a real-time tracking system that provides the position of the tracked vehicle accurately using fairly low-cost equipment and services. Vehicle tracking industries are expanding as businesses are interested to know their fleet vehicles positions minute by minute every day. Many systems were proposed recently that can provide such information. Design/methodology/approach – The system is implemented using GM862 cellular quad band module. A monitoring server and a graphical user interface on a Web site have also been implemented to view the current location of a vehicle on a specific map. Findings – The experiments were conducted and tested in different areas of the Kingdom Of Bahrain using Google maps, and results are discussed. Originality/value – The developed system has been compared to the available and imported tracking systems to some of the telematics companies in Bahrain, and the comparison has been discussed.

The Internet of Things is a technology that will become an integral part of human life. At present, its use has begun to be widely applied in various scientific fields such as agriculture, health, industry, etc. so that it has a very good impact. In addition, the development of this device has also reached a point where collaboration with various scientific fields has occurred. However, in addition to the benefits offered by the Internet of Things, there are challenges such as the use of energy in data transfer, memory limitations and so on as well as threats that can arise such as loss of privacy, leakage of data and information, or use to commit crimes in the physical world.
