There is a plethora of Apps for self-tracking and self-optimization that use the sensors of modern smartphones. But although these sensors are getting better and more widespread, and they can provide many health-related information -- both directly (heart rate etc.) and indirectly (big and small movement) -- it seems there usage in healthcare still lags behind.
Interesting, we have recently developed a image-based biosensor platform using smartphone. Smartphone is smarter and smarter. At the same time the sensor system should be compatible with smartphone on sensing principle and instrument operations. I think in the near future, researchers from the fields of engineering, biosensors, medicine, and AI will sit together to develop really useful smartphone-enabled biomedical systems.
