Abstract

This paper explores the challenges related to implementation of wearable sensors in the context of smart cities, particularly in the domains of health and wellbeing. Such sensors are increasingly used in clinical and public-health interventions, for early symptom identification, performance alerts, and real- time monitoring. While opportunities and benefits presented by wearable technologies are relatively well-known, this paper’s goal is to highlight risks and challenges related to their implementation. Based on the existing literature and lessons learned from EU-funded projects in which smartbands are used to collect health-related data, we share insight from integrating wearable sensors into the smart city fabric.
