BACKGROUND: The modern Internet of Things (IoT) makes small devices that can sense, process, interact, connect devices, and other sensors ready to understand the environment. IoT technologies and intelligent health apps have multiplied. The main challenges in the sports environment are playing without injuries and healthily. OBJECTIVE: In this paper the Internet of Things-based Smart Wearable System (IoT-SWS) is introduced for monitoring sports person activity to improve sports person health and performance in a healthy way. METHOD: Wearable systems are commonly used to capture individual sports details on a real-time basis. Collecting data from wearable devices and IoT technologies can help organizations learn how to optimize in-game strategies, identify opponents’ vulnerabilities, and make smarter draft choices and trading decisions for a sportsperson. RESULTS: The experimental result shows that IoT-SWS achieve the highest accuracy of 98.22% and efficient in predicting the sports person’s health to improve sports person performance reliably.

Most of the elderly citizens are either living by themselves or locked up at home when the rest of the family members go to work. Health of the elderly deteriorates gradually with age, but people fail to notice these changes in everyday life. The elderly are at risk of not receiving attention immediately in the case of emergencies. Internet of things can be used to alert family members and health personnel immediately when an abnormality in the elderly person's health is sensed to prevent discovery of illness at an irrecoverable stage. Internet of things can monitor parameters like heart pulse rate, body temperature, body movement, position, and location, and raise an alert to take immediate preventive actions. Making this system portable is one of the most necessary requirements because it will be worn by the user. That introduces various conditions in itself. For instance, the system should not disturb the patient or be heavy.

The elderly population is increasing globally, putting more pressure on aged care and public health systems. To address this issue and help increase the independence of older people, different digital technologies, including the Internet of things (IoT), can play an important role. Although there has been an increase in the number of studies in this field, most of them concentrate on IoT applications in elderly care from a technology perspective, with very little contribution from the clinical side. Therefore, this paper aims to investigate and identify the available IoT applications and their clinical utility for common diseases in elderly people. The results of this study could be useful for information technology professionals in developing and understanding the clinical requirements for IoT applications in healthcare for older people. Clinicians will also be informed about the clinical possibilities of using IoT devices in this area. Based on our findings, future research should focus on enhancing the clinical utility of current IoT applications in different settings and on developing new applications to support practitioners and older people.

In this work, a flexible and extensive digital platform for Smart Homes is presented, exploiting the most advanced technologies of the Internet of Things, such as Radio Frequency Identification, wearable electronics, Wireless Sensor Networks, and Artificial Intelligence. Thus, the main novelty of the paper is the system-level description of the platform flexibility allowing the interoperability of different smart devices. This research was developed within the framework of the operative project HABITAT (Home Assistance Based on the Internet of Things for the Autonomy of Everybody), aiming at developing smart devices to support elderly people both in their own houses and in retirement homes, and embedding them in everyday life objects, thus reducing the expenses for healthcare due to the lower need for personal assistance, and providing a better life quality to the elderly users.
