About

B. Praveen Kumaar is a researcher at the forefront of integrating the Internet of Things (IoT) with healthcare, specializing in cost-effective rehabilitation technologies. His most cited work, "An advanced cost-efficient IoT method for stroke rehabilitation using smart gloves" (2023, 7 citations), addresses the global health crisis of stroke by developing an affordable, IoT-enabled smart glove system. This innovation provides a practical solution for post-stroke motor recovery, significantly reducing the financial burden on patients and healthcare systems while enabling remote monitoring. Kumaar’s contributions lie in bridging the gap between advanced sensor technology and accessible patient care, demonstrating how low-cost IoT devices can deliver effective rehabilitation outside clinical settings. His work highlights a commitment to democratizing healthcare technology, particularly for underserved populations. By focusing on real-world applicability and cost-efficiency, Kumaar is shaping the future of telerehabilitation, offering a scalable model for managing chronic conditions. His research not only advances biomedical engineering but also underscores the transformative potential of IoT in improving quality of life for stroke survivors globally.
