Smart uses digital technologies to connect people to services and services to infrastructure for more efficient use of resources

sources and
improved sustainability. There are six sectors that must work together to make smart cities efficient and sustainable. Smart
City Energy | Smart Water | Smart Mobility | Smart buildings | Smart public services | Smart Integration

Enabling Technologies Challenges


Sensors | Cameras | Semantic interoperability Sensors: Although prices for sensors are falling, the enormous number that

Blockchain Power: An efficient solution to power these sensors are also required.
Cloud & Edge computing Frequent replacements or wiring to the electric grid seems infeasible

Connected health refers to a method of healthcare management that leverages technology for the delivery of healthcare
services or management of medical conditions. Digital technologies, including wearables and app, enables access to medical
knowledge, empowering people to self-diagnose, self-treat, and even head off illness.

Some examples of connected health include remote patient monitoring (RPM), decentralized clinical trials (DCTs), mobile personal
emergency response systems (mPERS), and telemedicine.

Enabling Technologies:
Sensors | Cameras | Data Analysis | Bluetooth | Wi-Fi | Cloud & Edge computing | Artificial Intelligence

Challenges involved:
Accuracy | Interoperability | Privacy | Responsibility | Payment | Regulations
Eventually, these challenges will work themselves out (mostly via tech) as connected health becomes the rule more than the exception.

Healthcare today:
The current system is designed primarily to serve the needs of healthcare providers, not consumers. There is opacity in the entire
process. Top-down autocratic approach.

Healthcare in the future (connected health):


Empowered patients, partnered in healthcare decisions, helping them to better choose which providers to see, self-diagnose, etc.
Preventive health care: By virtue of wearables, we can track an increasingly broad range of behaviors including Heart Rate, Blood
Pressure, Blood glucose levels, Heart conditions, Sleep patterns, Stress levels, Weight, Activity levels, etc.
Electronic health record: Digital health records are available both to the patient and medical practitioners at a click of a button.
Increased efficiency of practitioner: reducing paperwork, speeding up consultations, better-informed diagnosis.
IIOT “Industrial Internet of the Things” uses disruptive technologies such as embedded sensors, big data, cloud, and analytics to
derive specific industrial insights and outcomes across diverse and highly regulated industrial markets.
