In recent years, we have faced various social challenges, such as climate change, declining birth rates, aging populations, and population decline. As COVID-19 cause major changes in the way work live, "well-being" is attracting attention a criterion for "how to change".Although no single definition of well-being has been established, WHO defines "Health not absence disease or infirmity, but rather state physical, mental, well-being. Well-being includes quality life ability individuals societies contribute world with sense meaning purpose [1].We are conducting research development aimed at realizing Information Society where all "people" can enjoy both physical mental/spiritual health which digital real worlds will continue merge. Improving through connected means using technology improve management promote overall wellness. Connected remote monitoring, telemedicine, personal data, chronic management, behavioral support, etc.By integrating these strategies into daily life, benefit from more proactive, personalized, efficient healthcare, ultimately enhancing their well-being.In this challenge, present our efforts different perspectives, including people society, spiritual health.A basic element It important be healthy maintain good mental health, on basis, values (symbiosis, empathy, sustainability, happiness, prosperity) that enhance an individual's (QOL) spread. However, humanity currently experiencing pandemic new type coronavirus infection situation said one significantly reduced worldwide.Physical believed it serve basis cultivating one's life. The medical field undergoing paradigm shift symptomatic therapy, seeks cure after illness, care preventing illness first place (preventive medicine).An perspective behavior EU looking effective change many years. particular, technologies facilitated by wearable Internet Things devices domain engineering computer science. A particular focus placed case study examines application techniques vital signs monitoring wearables, underscoring relevance urgency further critical intersection human [2]. findings shed light promising role wearables IoT devices, hereinafter referred promoting positive improving individuals, highlight need continued area realize full potential societal benefit. support applications offer therapy exercises [3,4], mood tracking [5][6][7], stress [8,9]. Virtual groups counseling services also play role. Iin addition, systems aggregate analyze providing insights tailored specific needs. This personalized approach effectiveness treatments lifestyle changes. Many tools set goals track progress, help stay motivated make These researches emphasize key advantages provide feedback, facilitate self-monitoring, incorporate gamification element. features process enjoyable, individuals' goals, bring up community accountability.Gamification elderly shown promise influencing intentions use technologybased solutions [10]. Sestino and, D'Angelo found gamification-based therapeutics positively affected elderly's intention use, effect increased magnitude participants' socialization-seeking tendency increased, revealing importance socializationoriented stimulating responses technological tools.In working "bio-digital twin technology," enables collection wide variety large amount bio-data everyday modeling physiological functions, simulating future predictions capture characteristics each individual.Sensor-based twins assist sensors automatically performing tasks smart environment [11]. Adibi et al. investigated integration environments sensor technologies, capabilities, location-based services, focusing impact healthcare outcomes. By analyzing applications, they sensor-based were delivery patient well-being.As mentioned earlier, treatment prevention medicine). advanced bio-information processing based mapping lead avoiding unknown risks advance, naturally inducing behaviors, supporting independent living own way. For example, healthbased EHRs machine learning automate real-time patient-centered records securely authorized participants. Predictive needed private public predict early diagnosis. Data collected, algorithms determine condition trigger criticality (abnormality) status Such system aims prediction institutional homes participants On other hand, during reforms promotion working, there reports caused than workplace. There concern activity relaxed lifestyles may onset worsening lifestyle-related diseases. Maintaining often requires "persistence" "effort" discipline establish regular habits. accumulating biosensing data activities habits (diet, exercise sleep), elements well-being, time axis, method acquired reveal biorhythmic individuals. Combining knowledge psychology economics, mechanism regulate rhythms body mind presenting indexing evidence spontaneous effortless developing feedback methods.The clock generates circadian rhythm regulated input external information region brain (the suprachiasmatic nucleus). Recent studies understanding eating right foods healthier diet. words, incorporating diet takes account body's internal should easy develop lifestyle. Chrononutrition mainly tested nocturnal animals mice. Evidence relationship between [13,14].Social isolation become issue due transformation communities result older people, especially those who socially isolated, needs improved.How used address wellbeing, interventions its explored.Engaging adults level technology-based practices increase self-efficacy mobility, infrastructure, [15,16].Connected improves interactions, foster connections. video calls online consultations accessible, mobility issues live areas [12,17]. access reduce isolation.Healthcare platforms connect similar conditions concerns emotional practical advice. encourage belonging.Connected Health creates joins focused wellness members share experiences, tips encouragement.In individual behaviors deliver reminders engagement self-care. Also, plans part strategy.Mobile only families connected, resources health. cognitive, visual, auditory adults' selfefficacy. We recommend loneliness technology-agnostic multifaceted, range recognize competencies types interactions meet preferences.Future explore implications real-world scenarios, evaluating settings sports rehabilitation, monitoring.As continues evolve, understand long-term devices. Through novel well prevent interventions, strive individuals.From perspective, summarized growing healthcare. developments great opportunity proactively problems diagnose, treat, monitor patients out hospital. adoption technology-enabled increases enable flexible models, increasing number traditional augmented replaced implementation depend clear robust code practice privacy, confidentiality, cybersecurity related supply still gaps addressed itself, system, users technology. Specifically, how designed standardized protocols interoperability international cross-state systems. Further efficiency blockchain storage compared centralized, cloud-based context care. Finally, consumer clinician acceptance literacy experience determined. believe addressing go long toward enabling broader save dollars care.While actively discussed fields sociology, little design communication contactless device technology, emerged measure without burdening person being measured. future, necessary while challenges.
