- ItemThe Development of M3S-Based GPS Navchair and Tele-Monitor System.(2007-02-06) Wu, Yi-Hui; Lu, Bing-Yuh; Chen, Heng-Yin; Ou-Yang, Yao; Lai, Jin-Shin; Kuo, Te-Son; Chong, Fok-ChingThe purpose of this study is to develop a M3S Based GPS navigation system for power wheelchair The wheelchair steered with GPS and electronic compass can move automatically toward a specific destination through a GIS Map in the computer The topic of this study is to help people with disabilities regain independence of transportation in specific areas of their daily activities This system is now designed to operate in special locations for example campuses or airports Safety of the system is enhanced according to M3S which is an international standard for power wheelchair In the proposed architecture modules are easily and securely integrated to the wheelchair which includes a tele monitor system implemented with computer network mobile phone and physiological sensors Bio signals wheelchair location and other information of the user are acquired by the nursing staff or any other medical personnel by using this system
- ItemA remote data access architecture for home-monitoring health-care applications.(2006-12-04) Lin, Chao-Hung; Young, Shuenn-Tsong; Kuo, Te-SonWith the aging of the population and the increasing patient preference for receiving care in their own homes remote home care is one of the fastest growing areas of health care in Taiwan and many other countries Many remote home monitoring applications have been developed and implemented to enable both formal and informal caregivers to have remote access to patient data so that they can respond instantly to any abnormalities of in home patients The aim of this technology is to give both patients and relatives better control of the health care reduce the burden on informal caregivers and reduce visits to hospitals and thus result in a better quality of life for both the patient and his her family To facilitate their widespread adoption remote home monitoring systems take advantage of the low cost features and popularity of the Internet and PCs but are inherently exposed to several security risks such as virus and denial of service DoS attacks These security threats exist as long as the in home PC is directly accessible by remote monitoring users over the Internet The purpose of the study reported in this paper was to improve the security of such systems with the proposed architecture aimed at increasing the system availability and confidentiality of patient information A broker server is introduced between the remote monitoring devices and the in home PCs This topology removes direct access to the in home PC and a firewall can be configured to deny all inbound connections while the remote home monitoring application is operating This architecture helps to transfer the security risks from the in home PC to the managed broker server on which more advanced security measures can be implemented The pros and cons of this novel architecture design are also discussed and summarized
