Abstract
The presence medicine usually leads to explosive costs for a full medical coverage in particular for rural areas, frequent nomadic patients and mass casualty incidents. Therefore, advanced tele-medicine such as mobile health (m-Health) is gaining at importance. Body Sensor Networks (BSN) represent a fundamental tool to enable future tele-medicine. In this paper, we present a novel experimental BSN platform that allows to (a) measure important health indications, and (b) to map the health status of the individual carrying the platform into a set of predefined classes. We describe the components of the experimental platform while highlighting its key benefits to the research community through a set of experiments.
