Imagine a future that would begin with a “digital nervous system”:
• Inconspicuous wireless sensors worn on your body and placed in your home would continuously monitor your vital signs and track the daily activities that affect your health, counting the number of steps you take and the quantity and quality of food you eat.
• Wristbands would measure your levels of arousal, attention and anxiety.
• Bandages would monitor cuts for infection. Your bathroom mirror would calculate your heart rate, blood pressure and oxygen level.
