Fetal movement monitoring is vital for fetal health. The accuracy of the maternal perception in monitoring fetal movement varies. In this work, a wearable device with two accelerometers and machine learning algorithms was developed for accurate and continuous fetal movement monitoring. It aims for accuracy comparable to ultrasound. The device showed promising results in fetal movement monitoring, potentially providing valuable insights into the fetal biological profile during the perinatal period.
The Internet of Things (IoT) connects different objects embedded with sensors, software and state-of-the-art technologies through the internet, enabling them to communicate in real-time through the wired or wireless communication system. Its application requires validation before actual implementation to reduce the risk involved, especially in security and privacy. The development of experimental environment (testbeds) provides an efficient platform for conducting practical IoT experiments under real conditions and precise testing techniques for wireless sensor networks (WSN) and IoT applications before implementation.
