Today, the integration of web, mobile and telemetric data affecting the entire healthcare supply chain is increasingly seamless. These insights (and their applications) will have enormous implications for how individuals interact with the healthcare team and will change the way we obtain and share health data. The facts supporting this change are staggering:
• By the end of 2013, nearly 80% of the world's population will have wireless coverage. Today, there are already more than 5 billion mobile subscribers, and even more have access through family and friend networks.
• Mobile cloud computing is booming; According to analysts, the number of cloud-based mobile applications will be 20 times higher in 2014 than in 2009. Users will be able to use their mobile phones to share resources and applications at lower cost and without highly technical hardware.
• Artificial intelligence is progressing; Modern computing techniques and applications influence many areas of daily human life at increasingly complex, sophisticated, and intellectually demanding levels.
• Wearable wireless sensors are expected to grow from 20 million to 400 million by 2014.
The intersection of mobile communication, cloud computing, and wearable sensors has the potential to transform health systems, demonstrating its potential to extend the reach of health information and services to all patient populations and promote a transition towards citizen-centered health care and well-being.
This award can pave the way for the development of a transparent, integrated, non-invasive, hands-free monitoring device capable of providing individuals with personalized and early disease detection and prevention. It can also respond to emergency events by alerting medical personnel when needed. Just as OnStar provides vehicle safety, communications and diagnostics, OnStar for Body will provide personal health safety, communications and diagnostics.
