4) Communication with implantable devices: VLC can facilitate communication with implanted medical devices, such as pacemakers or sensory implants. These devices can transmit critical data about the patient¡¯s health status to an external receiver via visible light, ensuring continuous and discreet monitoring, without the need for invasive connections or bulky batteries. Coordination between wearable and implanted medical devices is crucial for integrated patient monitoring. VLC can synchronize these devices efficiently, ensuring that data transmitted by implants is correctly interpreted by wearable devices, and vice versa. This enables real-time monitoring and improved medical decision-making.
5) Home Patient Monitoring: VLC can be integrated into telemonitoring systems for home monitoring of patients, especially those with chronic diseases or in the post-operative phase. By using VLC-enabled home devices, such as smart lighting fixtures, health data can be securely transmitted to healthcare professionals, enabling continuous and proactive monitoring without the need for frequent hospital visits.
