Self Operable E-health Diagnosis and Monitoring System with Gesture Control and Voice Assistance

Abstract

In the present timeline, technology has advanced significantly, and the healthcare sector is constantly expanding. People in rural areas who cannot access corporate hospitals postpone their health check-ups due to the difficulty of traveling long distances. The readily available and expensive nature of diagnostic technologies have prevented many rural residents from seeking clinical examinations, even in cases when they have health issues. Corporate hospitals often make people to wait for long periods of time for health reports and causing delays. These issues highlighted the need for a device which aimed at developing an Arduino based health diagnosis system To resolve this issue, we have introduced a device that offers a comprehensive health diagnosis and monitoring system that uses Arduino technology to store and display vital health information. The system is designed to analyze electrocardiograms (ECG), photoplethysmograms (PPG), body temperature, heart rate and stress levels in real time and then process this information to create meaningful health status assessments and store them in the database for further health assessments. Furthermore, these data could be displayed through web server or an application. Additionally, this system provides voice assistance for the condition of patient when it is critical which helps in early detection of health conditions. Hand gestures are incorporated into this device, which makes it distinctive. Users can control the display of health parameters and easily move through the system's features with simple hand gestures. Users can switch between different types of modes in the system (such as on/off and different operation) by moving their hand in specified patterns. Thus, this makes the system user-friendly so that everyone may use it.
