Abstract

Multi-function, multi-sensor and even multistandard following wearable devices are going to play an important role in everyday life. Just as the Internet of Things will bring automation to many commonplace tasks, wearable devices will not only monitor our physical wellbeing but will blend seamlessly into our lives, providing a link to the IoT and beyond. According to a survey, enthusiast people feel that they would be wearing 5-6 wearable devices by 2020 [1]. The main motive behind this project is to integrate all the necessary features into one wearable and to optimize the cost of the device to make it affordable for everyone. The user-friendly interface and compatibility with various major operating systems of mobile phones make this device (called Sukoon device subsequently in this paper) convenient and more desirable. Sukoon device is capable of providing emergency contact details to the user at the time of emergency, send the medical history of the patient at times of accident, send current location along with latitude and longitude when in an emergency to all contacts of interest with the help of panic button and helps to automate functioning of nearby devices. Bluetooth technology (BLE) is utilised for communication purposes with the mobile device and the Wifi module is used for communication with other devices. An Android application Sukoon is made to provide the interface between the Sukoon hardware and other devices.
