Mobile applications and portable devices are being used extensively in the healthcare sector due to their rapid development. Wearable devices having sensors can be used to collect, analyze, and transmit the vital signs of the wearer. In this paper, we have proposed a wearable expert system that supports and monitors the skier during his activity. This research work is motivated by the need to provide rapid assistance to skiers, especially during off-piste skiing, where its more dangerous, and seeking help is difficult with mishaps. Our approach mainly focuses on proposing an expert system that integrates wearable devices (helmet, goggles, digital watch) with the skier’s smartphone. We present an architecture model and knowledge artifacts to design a wearable expert system for skiing.
