BSN 2009 was jointly hosted by the University of California Centre for Information Technology Research in the Interests of Society (CITRIS) and the Centre for Pervasive Sensing at Imperial College London.
BSN 2010 will be held in Singapore, in late May.
Body sensor networks (BSN) technology has gained tremendous international interest in recent years from researchers both in academia and industry. With the development of innovative wearable/wireless/implantable biosensors, the applications for BSNs extend from in-vivo monitoring and intervention to everyday healthcare, as well as fitness, sport and security. This workshop will address the fast-growing BSN research field, and offers participants a unique forum to discuss the key issues and innovative solutions in current BSN research. The conference featured a number of invited lectures by leading academic researchers and industrial experts and included showcases and demonstrations of healthcare and other technologies.
Areas of interest are:
- Networking, security and wireless communications
- Smart fabrics and wearables
- Lower power electronics, power sources and energy harvesting
- BSN architecture and platforms
- Medical applications
- Sport and leisure applications
- Sensor technology and biocompatibility
- Home monitoring and assisted living applications
