An Improved Design of Wearable Sensors Assisted Personal Health Monitoring Device Based on IoT Technology

Health is an essential part of existence. However, a lot continued to lack access to adequate healthcare services. It is attributed to constraints in the technology employed in hospitals and barriers to accessing these facilities. The Internet of Things (IoT) and wearables consist of tiny embedded devices equipped with sensors that gather data from their environment. In contemporary society, individuals have introduced complexity and bustle into their lives, sometimes neglecting their health owing to demanding schedules. Contemporary health monitoring technologies can prove onerous and burdensome for patients, resulting in inadequate adherence and postponed identification of health concerns. The IoT is currently a prominent issue, providing several solutions across various sectors, particularly in healthcare. The Internet of Things (IoT) is utilized in healthcare for illness detection as a preventive measure, disease treatment as a therapeutic solution, and disease monitoring as part of the healing process. Wearable gadgets have been created within the IoT framework to assist individuals in obtaining appropriate treatment. This study employs the ESP8266 WiFi Module to provide IoT connections, alongside heartbeat and DS18B20 sensors for assessing patient heart rate and body temperature. This technique employs a GPS module to accurately ascertain the precise position data of the relevant persons. The measurement system, comprising wearable sensors, continuously monitors patient indicators. Subsequently, transmit the measured signals to the Android interface using a wireless connection. Should the established critical values for the patient be surpassed, the corresponding values along with the patient's real-time location are transmitted to both family members and the physician by email and Twitter notice. The wearable measuring device enables patients to remain active within their social surroundings, facilitating a confident lifestyle.
