The BioHarness is an example of a WHMS developed by the Zephyr company, for monitoring the physiological conditions of individuals. The individual can use the BioHarness system during sporting and other daily activities. To use the system, the person wears a smart fabric chest strap, embedded in the strap is the BioHarness Module. The BioHarness Module contains several sensors for monitoring vital signs, some examples include: heart rate, breathing rate and skin temperature sensor heart ratesensors that facilitates the person to track This enables the person to monitor his heart rate, breathing rate, skin temperature among other vital signs. The sensors within the BioHarness Module records raw sensor data, processes this raw sensor data and then analyzes the processed sensor data within the BioHarness device. As such the device can operate in three modes (i.e. transmit, record, transmit and record); which are software configurable. In this project we implemented a BioHarness Vital Signs Information System (BVSIS) to record the vital signs of sporting students and generate interesting patterns from the recorded data.
