This study reports on a novel Smart-Fabric based wireless Body Area Sensor Network for assessing psychological and physiological work risk levels. The combination of smart-sensing fabrics advantages, high electronic miniaturization, and the latest machine learning enables the system to assess the risk level of the worker. The body area sensor network includes a smartphone, an artificial intelligence algorithm for risk assessment, and a set of sensor-nodes integrated into a textile substrate (i.e., activity detection, electrocardiogram (ECG), sweat rate, body temperature, and textile integrated respiration sensors). Preliminary and encouraging results are shown in terms of physiological signals and physical activity detection.

Abstract
This study reports on a novel Smart-Fabric based wireless Body Area Sensor Network for assessing psychological and physiological work risk levels. The combination of smart-sensing fabrics advantages, high electronic miniaturization, and the latest machine learning enables the system to assess the risk level of the worker. The body area sensor network includes a smartphone, an artificial intelligence algorithm for risk assessment, and a set of sensor-nodes integrated into a textile substrate (i.e., activity detection, electrocardiogram (ECG), sweat rate, body temperature, and textile integrated respiration sensors). Preliminary and encouraging results are shown in terms of physiological signals and physical activity detection.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
