Summary:Human well-being is significantly impacted by stress, which can be caused by physical or psychological triggers. To address this, the integration of body-worn and environmental sensors can be used to monitor physiological biomarkers and predict health outcomes, especially for vulnerable persons and the elderly living independently. This paper proposes a personalised smart system that is designed to monitor and visually represent health status in order to enhance health and mental well-being. The proposed cloud-based system uses physiological and environmental data to detect and monitor stress in real time. The results are displayed on a dashboard, indicating stress levels. These continuous insights facilitate ongoing health monitoring and personalised thermal comfort provision for elderly individuals, enabling timely interventions in abnormal situations and ultimately improving their quality of life.
