With the rapid aging populations in developed and developing countries and the increase of non-communicable disease, the contradiction between increasing healthcare demands and the lack of medical specialists have become more and more serious. Wearable personal health devices (PHDs) provide a good solution of this problem. But due to the proprietary interface and protocol, the compatibility and extensibility problem among different PHD manufacturers strongly influenced the spread application of the wearable PHDs. So we design and develop a ubiquitous healthcare system for Android tablet, which can not only acquire and process the physiological signals from non-standard laboratory developed multifunction wearable sensors, but also acquire and process the physiological signals from standard PHDs comply with Continua Alliance or ISO/IEEE 11073 standards. The preliminary results demonstrate that this system can not only receive data from standard and non-standard PHDs, but also do the arrhythmia classification and heart rate analysis in real time.
