Knowledge map of developments in wearable monitoring technologies for exercise / 军事医学

ABSTRACT

Objective To make an exhaustive study of the evolution,status quo and future developments of wearable technologies for monitoring of exercise across the world via knowledge graphs in order to provide reference for related research in China's military.Methods Data on wearable technologies for monitoring of exercise collected from literature that was retrieved from Web of Science was used as the subject.Bibliometrix and other visual analysis softwares were used to construct knowledge graphs.The essential characteristics of developments of wearable technologies for monitoring of exercise were explored in terms of trends of publication,co-occurrence networks and co-occurrence of key words.Results The field of wearable technologies for monitoring of exercise was growing fast.Institutional cooperation was characterized by intraregional cooperation.The United States held an important position in the global innovation cooperation network.Conclusion As the leading author of co-occurrence network,Professor Zhonglin Wang has contributed greatly to the collaboration between research teams.Artificial intelligence,big data,cloud computing and other technologies have become hotspots in this field.The application and development of new materials has gone a long way towards making monitoring devices thin,skin-friendly and traceless.
