Dr. Swarna Ravindra Babu, Founder & CEO of Coovam smart systems and Services Private Limited was the Chief Guest for the inaugural function. The proceedings of the event were distributed to the participants. Resource persons from industry and academia were invited to deliver sessions for the Two Day Seminar. Dr, Swarna Ravindra Babu emphasized on the latest trends in this field and the importance of IOT for E-health. The goal of the Seminar on IoT for E-Health Initiatives in India is to bring researchers and faculty from the IoT field and E-Health field together, to foster a better common understanding, to exchange visions and latest research results addressing IoT specialization for E-Health, to discuss promising new technologies and to highlight open research challenges. This seminar will result in more innovations, research and product development in the above mentioned topic which is of huge benefit to the society. If “smart” is defined by the confluence of access to information and the ability to utilize that information in meaningful and appropriate ways, then the
promise of the Internet of Things is, simply, a much “smarter” planet that keeps us safer, balances the personal good with the greater good, and improves humankind’s chances at providing a more sustainable legacy for future generations. This seminar covered various aspects of application of IOT such as critical care to the elderly, smarter transport, smarter homes and hospitals, smart and intelligent health monitoring systems, intelligent assistive aids etc.
Through this seminar the faculty will be able to develop smarter elders and healthy society. Through the faculty, the knowledge can be further disseminated to the students in an effective way and innovations, research and products can be developed by these teams. The institution can come up with novel projects and innovations in this field and collaborate with the industry to serve the society through these innovations.
