TLDR
In this paper, the authors examined the current technologies and usage of wearable monitoring systems in military and provided a guide for choosing suitable and affordable systems of quantitative evaluation of physical and psychological conditions of soldiers.Abstract:
From the second half of the 1990s, thanks to more affordable and more powerful technology and systems for recording based on miniaturized sensors, we can observe a more intensive development of a system that monitors the physical and psychological conditions of soldiers. Systems for measuring of physical and medical data for the diagnostics of physical and psychological state has significantly spread. This study, however, examines the current technologies and usage of the wearable monitoring systems in military. The article can serve as a guide for choosing suitable and affordable systems of quantitative evaluation of physical and psychological conditions of soldiers. In addition, the innovative telemetry monitoring system (FlexiGuard system) composed of appropriate sensors is introduced. Based on previous researches and tests, FlexiGuard system and its sensors are recommended for use in military practice.read more
