IoT-Enhanced Gesture Recognition System for Healthcare Applications

In response to the prevalent language barriers in medical settings, this paper proposes an innovative solution leveraging gesture recognition technology. Through the integration of deep learning models and Internet of Things (IoT) tools, the system aims to facilitate seamless communication between patients and healthcare providers. Initially, a deep learning model is developed using a personalized dataset containing various medical gestures, allowing for the recognition of nuanced patient expressions such as “I have Fever” or “Shoulder pain.” Additionally, the system incorporates IoT sensors to monitor vital signs like body temperature and pulse in real-time, ensuring comprehensive patient assessment. With the capability to continuously evolve and adapt to new gestures, this solution not only enhances accessibility but also improves the quality of healthcare delivery, particularly in underserved communities. By bridging the gap between language barriers and medical communication, this innovative approach holds promise for fostering inclusive and effective healthcare practices worldwide. In addressing the challenges posed by language barriers in medical interactions, this paper presents a comprehensive solution that combines gesture recognition technology with deep learning models and IoT devices. By capturing and interpreting patient gestures, such as indicating specific symptoms or discomfort, the system facilitates clear communication between patients and doctors. Furthermore, the integration of IoT sensors enables continuous monitoring of vital signs, allowing for timely interventions and personalized care. With its ability to adapt and expand to accommodate new gestures and medical scenarios, this solution represents a significant advancement in healthcare accessibility and quality. By leveraging cutting-edge technology, this approach has the potential to revolutionize healthcare delivery, particularly in areas with limited access to linguistic resources or medical expertise.
