ROS2 Healthcare

Welcome to the ROS2 Healthcare project! This repository contains ROS2 packages for healthcare applications, including message definitions, drivers, libraries, tools, and examples. ros2_hc serves as an example of how one can use biosignals coming from wearable medical devices like Vivalink and mbient wristbands to track patients' activities. In addition, we have developed an Activities of Daily Living (ADL) classifier that will help doctors visualize their patients' daily activity patterns and consequently help them recommend a suitable routine. This can be visualised through our healthcare_wheelchair_dashboard.

Repository Structure

• ros2_hc_drv: Includes drivers for various biosensors.
• ros2_hc_examples: Example applications and use cases demonstration.
• ros2_hc_lib: Libraries
• ros2_hc_msgs: Contains all message definitions and structure for biosensor data.
• ros2_hc_launch: Example launch files
• ros2_hc_tools: Tools and utilities for development and operation.

Setup

We then need to clone the repositories into our workspace

cd ros2_ws/src
git clone --recurse-submodules [email protected]:SCAI-Lab/ros2_healthcare.git
cd ..

then build and source the workspace

colcon build --symlink-install
source install/setup.bash

Running the Wrappers

We have included wrappers for several devices in the ros2_hc_drv repository.

Each wrapper receives either a device mac address or a file path as a parameter. Feel free to change the parameters in the respective config/params.yaml file for each device wrapper.

To run the wrappers for BLE devices, make sure the PC Bluetooth is on, the device is charged and is nearby, then run the wrapper

by running ros2 launch package_name launch_file

To run our dashboard, we will need to connect to the mbient sensor and to the sensomative mat, for this run:

ros2 launch mbient_ros mbient_node.launch.py

in a new terminal, source the repo and run the sensomative launch file

source install/setup.bash
ros2 launch sensomative_ros sensomative_node.launch.py

Running ADL Classifier

In order to have our model classify the data coming from the wearable devices, we need to run the healthcare_adl_classifier

To do this open a new tab, source the repo and run

source install/setup.bash
ros2 run healthcare_adl_classifier pub_adl

We first need to make sure our python environment is well set up

simply run pip install -r requirements.txt to install the dependencies

We then need to clone the repositories into our workspace

cd ros2_ws/src
git clone --recurse-submodules [email protected]:SCAI-Lab/ros2_healthcare.git
cd ..

then build and source the workspace

colcon build --symlink-install
source install/setup.bash

ros2 launch mbient_ros mbient_node.launch.py

in a new terminal, source the repo and run the sensomative launch file

source install/setup.bash
ros2 launch sensomative_ros sensomative_node.launch.py

In order to have our model classify the data coming from the wearable devices, we need to run the healthcare_adl_classifier

To do this open a new tab, source the repo and run

source install/setup.bash
ros2 run healthcare_adl_classifier pub_adl
