Abstract

Global warming has also increased the number of casualties caused by heat-related diseases caused by heat waves along with an increase in global temperature. The vulnerable groups from heat wave damage are outdoor workers and the elderly in particular, and it is necessary to respond the increasing heat wave damage. We propose a real-time control platform in order to reduce casualties of the vulnerable group from heatwaves, this research collects and analyzes user's vital signs data from wearable devices that generates alarms out of the suspected victims who are expected to be affected by heat-related illness and to respond quickly.

지구온난화는 세계적인 기온의 상승과 함께 폭염으로 인한 온열질환의 인명피해도 증가하고 있다. 특히, 주요 온열질환 취약계층은 실외작업자와 고령자이며, 점차 증가하는 폭염 피해에 대응이 필요한 실정이다. 본 연구는 온열질환 취약계층을 대상으로 폭염 피해를 대응하는 방안으로 웨어러블 디바이스로부터 사용자의 활력 징후 데이터의 수집 및 분석을 통해, 온열질환 피해가 예상되는 의심환자에 대한 이벤트를 발생시켜 신속한 대응을 할 수 있는 실시간 관제 플랫폼을 제안한다.
