REAL TIME HEALTH MONITORING USING IOT

Wearables are considered as the biggest innovation in technology since the smartphone – and the possibilities in this are endless. The components are the following: a hand worn device with Arduino board, an pulse sensor, a water proof temperature sensor. These devices collect data from the person wearing (like pulse, temperature and spO2.) and send to the cloud for storage and analysis. This multi-sensor device assembles a system which is very helpful for monitoring of wearer’s health. The real time indication of the wearer’s health state and can be further analyzed for medical diagnosis. The wearer or the care taker or the doctor are alerted in case of potential emergency i.e., if there is a fall detected or if the heart rate drops low or becomes high or if any unusual health changes occur. The wearer’s location can be tracked immediately so that emergency measures can be taken without wasting much time and this very helpful in protecting life. Harmful situations can be avoided.
