The concept of the metaverse signifies the forthcoming stage of development of the Internet, wherein it will facilitate the creation of virtual worlds that are enduring, decentralized, and capable of providing immersive experiences in real time. The metaverse has vast potential for utilization in the domains of life sciences and healthcare, hence motivating investigations in contemporary trends, early adoption use cases, and the forthcoming opportunities it presents. The metaverse also possesses the capacity to fundamentally transform decentralized clinical trials through the elimination of physical and geographical constraints. This change in thinking entails the relocation of clinical trials from conventional settings to the comfort and convenience of patients’ residences, resulting in improvements in health behavior, medication adherence, remote monitoring, and other associated factors.

Applying Metaverse Technologies to Human-Computer Interaction for Healthcare focuses on the current developments in the metaverse, investigates its applications in the life sciences and healthcare industry based on metaverse powered human−computer interactions (HCI), analyzes early adoption use cases that provide measurable commercial benefits, and anticipates prospects in this rapidly evolving domain.

The book examines the treatment, management, and prevention of illnesses with the use of immersive therapeutics that use augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), and mixed reality (MR). It examines applications in cognitive therapy, support groups, psychiatric examinations, rehabilitation, and even physical therapy The book covers how healthcare practitioners have the capability to provide such services as diagnosis, treatment, monitoring, and care in remote settings, through the utilization of AR headsets and wearable devices. It concludes by discussing the continuous development of technology to facilitate the growth and maturation of the metaverse, hence enabling substantial business benefits for the life sciences and healthcare industries.

Networked Sensing Systems is essential for anyone seeking innovative and sustainable solutions across diverse sectors. It explores the integration of cutting-edge IoT technologies and digital transformation aimed at enhancing resource efficiency and addressing climate change challenges.

With today’s advancements in wireless and mobile connectivity, Internet of Things (IoT) sensor technologies, and digital innovation, sustainability principles are increasingly reinforcing one another. To transition to more resource-efficient solutions, use resources responsibly, and streamline operations, businesses must embrace digital transformation. Potential application areas include energy management, air pollution monitoring, fleet management, water management, and agriculture. Simultaneously, the expansion of IoT deployments and their integration into the contexts of 5G and emerging 6G mobile networking necessitate that the solutions themselves be green and sustainable. This includes incorporating energy- and environmentally-conscious technical solutions for communications.

By offering previously unattainable solutions, networked sensing can contribute to a more sustainable society by enabling the collection of data from heterogeneous sources in unique and novel ways. Additionally, the networking-based solutions themselves must be sustainable and environmentally friendly. For example, optimizing network architecture and relocating network equipment to strategic locations can significantly reduce energy waste. These goals drive the search for improved sensing technologies, emphasizing energy-efficient mobile sensing devices.

The goal of Networked Sensing Systems is to present and highlight the latest developments in sustainable networked sensing systems across a variety of contexts, all united by the aim of enhancing human well-being and combating climate change. Regardless of the area of expertise, this work seeks to offer practical solutions to the major challenges of building a sustainable smart society 5.0. This book serves as a platform to discuss networked sensing systems for a sustainable society, focusing on systems and applications based on mobile computing and wireless networks, while adopting multidisciplinary approaches that emphasize the human element in addressing these challenges.
