This work presents a wearable physiology evaluation and remote long-term care system embedded in a glasses frame. This wearable device has ability to monitor user's physiology data including heart rate, blood oxygen level, body temperature and body motion. Proposed system use Wireless LAN (WLAN) network to establish connection between wearable device and PC-based data server. Data server can receive and analysis data from wearable device, and provide immediately notification to medical personnel when abnormal data is detected. Proposed system can also record user's daily behavior by using WLAN indoor positioning, such data can be used to analysis early syndrome of dementia. When device users leave house, this system can acquire user's current position by using WLAN outdoor positioning to prevent user from getting lost. The proposed system has heart rate error within 3.58% and blood oxygen saturation error within 1.74%. Hence, the proposed wearable system can benefit medical research of the elderly, providing elders with a comfortable and safe life.
