IoT-Based Pulse Rate and Body Temperature Monitoring System

Abstract

The Internet of things (IoT) is a system that contains embedded technology or a way of interrelated computing devices that have network connectivity that provides value by allowing them to send and receive data with another connecting device without requiring human-to-human or human-to-computer interaction. The IoT field is increasing every day. People are using IoT device everywhere like home, working place. Every year 15% to 20% IoT device increasing even Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) say that in 2020 the connected device over IoT will be thirty billion, which is four times larger than the total human being in the world. In the healthcare system, IoT plays a significant rule. A revolution is awaiting in the healthcare industry in form IoT will make these devices like a sensor, actuator, and smart device along with applications that will interact and make health monitoring, diagnostics and treatment more personalized and bring down the cost of the treatment. The IoT market of healthcare is poised to grow at a Compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 56.27% for the period 2016-2021.The concept of this research project we are developing a device and a smart mobile app, where the device will measure the pulse rate in Bit Per Minute(BPM) and body temperature send data to an internet server and the app will show the data from anywhere through the internet. For this project, we use a pulse sensor to detect pulse rate and temperature sensor to detect body temperature in NodeMCU ESP8266.
