Abstract
Now a days, E-health or electronic health monitoring system is one of the major applications of wireless body area network (WBAN). Body area network or body sensor network (BSN) is an evolving technology in computer sphere and performs exceedingly effective responsibility in the civilization, primarily in health service industries. BAN eases in examining crucial symptoms of a patient/elderly and can monitor his/her activities in routine life to deliver him/her a precise care. Owing to the epidemic of COVID-19, we are struggling through an unexpected adverse pandemic situation and now healthy lifestyle and disease preclusion are a socio-economic issue. Therefore, it is required to stay healthy and take balanced diet which can help us to gain immunity and protect us from severe ailments. In this paper, we are proposing a body area network for an automatic dietary monitoring system that can gather food intake information through image, audio, accelerometer sensors, and by analyzing these data, the system can measure the food type/volume, nutritional benefit of consumed food, and also the eating behavior of a person. The system is low-cost, scalable, and energy aware. We have implemented a prototype of our proposed BSN, named ‘DietSN.’
