Abstract

The increasing need to perform Reverse Transcriptase-Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) during the COVID-19 pandemic is time-consuming and costly. An IoT-based self-screening system of COVID-19, is expected to be a solution. In this study, instruments were created to monitor SpO2 and heart rate using the MAX30102 sensor, body temperature using the MLX90614 sensor, and breathing rate using a flex sensor as a COVID-19 detection parameter. The measured vital sign results are also transmitted to the website using the Wi-Fi module ESP32. The method used is a decision tree that has two classifications, indicated healthy and indicated COVID-19. Decision tree accuracy is 90% and recall is 100%. Temperature readings have a 98.68% accuracy, SpO2 readings and heartbeats are 98.74% and 98.64%, respectively, and breathing rate per minute readings are 100% accurate. This autonomous COVID-19 screening system can be used as an alternative solution for early detection of COVID-19.
