Abstract
With the uprising of Internet of Things (IoT) networks, new applications have taken advantage of this new concept. Having all devices and all people connected 24/7 have several advantages in a variated amount of disciplines. One of them is medicine and the e-health concept. The possibility of having a real time lecture of the vital signs of people can prevent a live threat situation. This paper describes the realization of a device capable of measuring the heart rate of a person and checking for abnormalities that may negatively affect the patient’s well-being. This project will make use of electronic devices known as microcontrollers, specifically from the Arduino family, enabling us to capture data, and, with the help of a network card and a RJ-45 cable, transfer it to a PC and visualize the heart rate in real time over its assigned IP address.
Highlights
Society is evolving rapidly into a symbiosis with technology
The concept of ehealth started with the idea to have online medical consultation
A sensor will be installed in order to detect the heart beats and showing them in the LCD along the heart rate
Summary
People have the urge to be connected with the rest of the world, and to have all the information in their hands This necessity permitted the arrival of new network and technology requirements. The need of devices capable of collect medical data and make them available to the professional staff is imperative. In this project we will build an IP-based heart rate meter, with the purpose of detecting possible health anomalies. This device will be constructed using an Arduino microcontroller kit and an Arduino Ethernet Shield module. A sensor will be installed in order to detect the heart beats and showing them in the LCD along the heart rate
