Wearable and autonomous biomedical devices and systems for smart environment: New issues and characterization

Wearable and autonomous devices and systems for biomedical applications are assuming a specific importance to preserve human beings’ activities. Some applications are namely: energy harvesting for supplying autonomous devices, artificial limb and related robotics, on-line and off-line control of physiological parameters, wearable tissues and devices, wireless portable components, implantable items etc.. Software applications are also welcomed. The book aims to illustrate new specific techniques for theoretical studies, designing, building, characterizing and testing the aforementioned devices and systems. The book also intends to suggest new issues for researchers, master degree students and scientists
