Temperature monitored IoT based smart incubator

Abstract

Baby neonatal Incubator is a closed apparatus for providing a controlled environment in all the possible ways for the immense care of premature babies. Majority of premature babies are born between 32 to 37 weeks of gestation period and die due to lack of simple essential care such as warmth. Until recently, most of the developing countries turned a blind eye to premature babies leading to their demise. This research work provides a cost-worthy design of an embedded device for real time monitoring of newborn babies in the incubator. It permits early detection of potential life threatening events and maintains a safe environment for the infant. Many of the existing medical technological companies (such as small and medium) may not adopt the best existing technologies as its maintenance might not be cost effective. On the other hand the bigger medical firms which have adopted them are cost effective and common man cannot afford the same. So, the main objective of this research is to overcome the drawbacks and provide eco-friendly service to all the common people.
