Wearables, telecommunication, and personal health management are at the heart of the healthcare revolution. Innovative key-enabling technologies, devices, products, and services make it possible to measure, transmit, store, and analyze data originating from the human body. A prime example of such a technology is wireless body area networks (WBANs) that encompass both on-body and in-body sensing combined with dependable and trustable (wireless) communications, accurate localization, and behavioral analysis, which in turn makes healthcare systems more effective and efficient.

The conference delves into the opportunities, challenges, and solutions related to the design, simulation, implementation, and real-life deployment of body area networks (BodyNets) and related technologies such as IoT, AI, and big data for health management. The conference will provide a lively platform for discussing ideas, comparing practices, encouraging adoption, and sharing experience among researchers and practitioners from various fields such as wireless communication, computer science, electrical engineering, biomedical engineering, medicine, and other related disciplines from the academic and industrial sectors.

This event is organized by EAI.

EAI – European Alliance for Innovation is a non-profit organization and a professional community established in cooperation with the European Commission to empower the global research and innovation, and to promote cooperation between European and International ICT communities.

EAI’s vision is to foster excellence in research and innovation on the principles of transparency, objectivity, equality, and openness. Our guiding principle is community cooperation to create better research, provide fair recognition of excellence and transform best ideas into commercial value proposition.

EAI‘s mission is to create an environment that rewards excellence transparently, and builds recognition objectively regardless of age, economic status or country of origin, where no membership fees or closed door committees stand in the way of your research career.

Through these shared values, EAI leads the way toward advancing the world of research and innovation, empowering individuals and institutions for the good of society to fully benefit from the digital revolution.
