Connected objects are proliferating in our society, including in the health and wellbeing sectors. It is time to make citizens, society and professionals aware that connected health is not simply a medical or a technical issue.
The book describes and discusses the emerging connected health industry from the viewpoint of citizens and society. It analyzes the related issues, proposes approaches based on the human sciences and identifies coming challenges. It appears that, beside the clinical and technical considerations, many barriers must be overcome before connected devices become efficient contributors to health and wellbeing.
The authors propose a description of new devices and services, related questions and likely difficulties, and suggestions to tackle these issues. The evidence and hypotheses are drawn from numerous examples taken from the field. Robert Picard and co-authors are members of Forum LLSA, an association of the Living Lab community in the health sector, which co designs and assesses connected solutions.
