  • Augmented reality smart-glass enables healthcare providers to use patient and their care related information without interference of workflow. In addition, augmented reality smart-glass simulation had advantages in improving competency via remote collaboration and real-time information sharing. This study investigated perception and attitude regarding augmented reality smart glass based healthcare simulation on three different groups of healthcare major students, computer major students, developers and faculties. Using convenience sampling method, data were obtained from 95 participants and statistical analysis were performed using SPSS 25.0. Developer and faculty group showed the highest scores, followed by healthcare major students. There was the high expectation on augmented reality smart-glass for skill acquisition and the high performance and big screen were essential features of device. The findings of this study revealed that differences between healthcare and computer major students exist and strategies to reduce those gaps are required to adopt augmented reality smart glass in healthcare settings.

  • Due to the recent developments of various smart devices, U-healthcare services using these appliances has increased. However, the security of U-healthcare services is a very important issue since healthcare services contain highly sensitive and private personal health information. In order to handle the security issues, the functionality of encrypting medical information must be provided, and an encryption key exchange method is necessary. In this paper, we propose a key exchange protocol by utilizing smart devices for secure U-healthcare services. The proposed protocol has been designed based on the elliptic curve based public key cryptography, providing high level security for smart devices by using short keys. Moreover, in order to strengthen user authentication and security, a smart watch is used as a complementary device, whenever the key exchange protocol is performed.

  • As the paradigm of healthcare shifts from the center of treatment to the center of prevention, products and services related to disease prevention are emerging at domestic and abroad. The government considers the smart healthcare industry as a solution to healthcare problems such as an increase in the number of chronic illnesses and an increase in the burden of medical expenses. The purpose of this study is to explore the factors affecting the use of smart healthcare products and services focusing on Health Literacy and health related personal characteristics and to provide policy implications. The subjects of the questionnaire are 1,027 adults over 20 in the nation, and conducted an online survey. In addition, the factors were analyzed by decision tree method. As a result, most of the respondents(76.9%) did not have experience using Smart Healthcare products and services. However, in the Health Literacy question, there was a difference in use experience depending on the degree of difficulty in using the mass media information. Other factors were the degree of intention to use new technology, the understanding of counseling about family members and friends, and health checkups. In order to enable self-healthcare through smart healthcare products and services, the ability of consumers to explore and utilize health information from the mass media should be improved. In addition, government and enterprise efforts are needed to achieve this.

  • In this study, there was emphasis in presenting a basic direction for the development of a healthcare smart clothing that could monitor diseases. It was also important that the clothing be user-friendly, for everyday life. For achieving this purpose , we studied major health indicators and essential technologies for developing healthcare smart clothing, and carried out the consumer research regarding healthcare smart clothing so it would appeal to consumers. As a result, there was a high demand for clothing that could diagnose diseases such as hypertension, diabetes and metabolic diseases, for all age groups. Thus, its marketability was predicted to be high. The results of this study will become an important index in developing future healthcare smart clothing.

  • Smart healthcare, combining ICT (Information and Communications Technologies) and medical technologies, has been rapidly emerging. Accordingly, its market has also increased as interest in disease prevention, management, and diagnosis grows due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In particular, using mobile devices to support medical activities, mobile healthcare has been attracting attention as a leading service in the smart healthcare market. However, the intention to use mobile healthcare apps may vary depending on individual beliefs and attitudes. Many studies on the intention to use mobile healthcare apps have used the TAM (Technology Acceptance Model), but there is a lack of studies that have been verified from the perspective of users' health beliefs. This study aims to identify the factors that affect the intention to use mobile healthcare apps based on the HBM (Health Belief Model). Furthermore, it investigates how this influencing mechanism fluctuates based on the user's mHealth literacy, the ability to find and understand health information through mobile. This study contributes to the empirical examination of the intention to use mobile healthcare apps through the HBM. It also offers insights for app providers and public health officials to increase the use of mobile healthcare apps.
