Abstract

The convergence of the internet of things, microcontrollers, health-based sensors and cloud-based systems can play a significant role in smart healthcare, by providing more accurate insights and better health data to patients, sustaining quality patient care. These areas combine to establish the IoMT concept, which has boosted the design of novel solutions to improve patient healthcare. This chapter aims to propose a novel, IoMT-based architecture for a rehabilitation system. It is based on the integration of low-cost and easily obtainable hardware with rapid prototyping and interoperable software to assemble a system capable of detecting shoulder movements and transmitting that information. The information is later processed by a central unit, and the data is prepared and presented to the patient so that he can adapt his posture during the exercises to better match what was prescribed by the health professional.
