Electrical Engineering, Government Engineering Collage, Bharuch, India
ABSTRACT
The main intention of this project is to design a system which is capable to monitor body’s parameters continuously. Another intention is to track patient’s current location using GPS. Thus, it sends message to the concerned authority by SMS using GSM. This project uses a microcontroller of the 8051 family and a rectified power supply. In this system, the GPS and GSM modem are interfaced to the microcontroller with the MAX-232 device for communication with the unit. A digital temperature sensor, blood pressure along with heartbeat sensor are duly interfaced to the microcontroller to act as monitoring of the patient’s body temperature. A 16*2 LCD display is interfaced to the microcontroller for displaying the information locally. Whenever the body’s one of these ailments exceeds the set point, then the microcontroller processes the details and sends them to the concerned authority by an SMS through the GSM modem. The location of the person is also sent with the help of the GPS providing longitude and latitude values. The sending and receiving information is also displayed on the LCD.
