Scaling up Environmental Governance in Precision Forestry.

Precision Forestry is an emerging approach that uses digital technologies for data-driven decision-making in environmental management. Traditional methods for assessing tree risk are often subjective and focus on individual trees using mechanical approaches. The #SecureTree model offers an innovative alternative by deploying sensors to measure biophysical parameters like temperature, humidity, and acceleration.

Fatigue trajectories by wearable remote monitoring of breast cancer patients during radiotherapy.

The aim of this pilot study was to assess the compliance of breast cancer (BC) patients with fitness tracker (FT) monitoring program during radiotherapy (RT) and to characterize radiation-induced fatigue (RIF) status through objective evaluation using FT-collected parameters. Thirty-six BC patients were invited to wear FT during their RT course for continuous monitoring of heart rate (HR) and step counts (STP). RIF assessment was performed weekly, according to CTCAE v5.

Heart rate estimation from ballistocardiogram signals processing via low-cost telemedicine architectures: a comparative performance evaluation.

Medical devices (MDs) have been designed for monitoring the parameters of patients in many sectors. Nonetheless, despite being high-performing and reliable, they often turn out to be expensive and intrusive. In addition, MDs are almost exclusively used in controlled, hospital-based environments.
