报告简介：

The Internet of medical things promises to change the way we manage our health, shifting from reactive treatment to proactive wellness monitoring and early intervention. Fortunately, technologies in areas such as sensing, communications, data mining, privacy protection, and user interfaces, have recently made great advances. It is thus time to harvest these technologies to realize the vision of managing our own health, preferably at our own home. In this talk, we introduce several recent studies in this general direction. First, we present HB-Phone, which is a bed-mounted sensor and can monitor a person’s heartbeats during sleep, by detecting the vibrations caused by heartbeats that are propagated through mattress. Second, we present Motion-Scale, which are mounted at bed legs and can detect body and limb motions on bed. These two sensors can continuously monitor a person’s vital signs and motions even when they are asleep. Finally, we present head-banger, a user authentication system for head-mounted smart devices, which can help protect user data privacy.
