Internet of Things Framework in Athletics Physical Teaching System and Health Monitoring

The modern Internet of Things (IoT) paradigm enables creating small devices that can provide sensor, process, and connect, facilitating sensors, embedded devices, and other “things” ready for understanding the environment. Physical education and physical activity can improve both the physical and mental health of practitioners. However, there are many issues or accidents occurred to the athletes during training and tournament. In addition, lack of awareness during a match or game could lead to injuries and dropping the competition or match. This study proposes an IoT-based Wearable Intelligent Health Monitoring system (IoTW-IHMS) for the physical teaching system and athletes’ health monitoring. This study intends to collect and track data on player rates, body temperature, and response time to stimulation while using compact wearable devices and microprocessors as the main device to relay them wirelessly. Multiple sensors tracked the heart rate, current body temperature, and response time of the athlete. The simulation analysis shows that the proposed IoTW-IHMS method enhances the accuracy (93.6%), response time ratio (95.4%), sensitivity ratio (97.5%), performance ratio (91.3%), and prediction ratio (96.8%) compared to other popular methods.
