Health Project 💊

This project aims to design and implement a portable HealthCare equipment. For the sensor interface, this project uses an Arduino Uno microcontroller. For connecting different sensors to the Arduino board, this project has also designed a custom shield. For controlling the interface, as well as showing the measurements results, this project uses an Android application.

Available Measurements

  • Electrocardiography and heart rate.
  • Body temperature.
  • Blood pressure.
  • Oxygen saturation (SpO2).
  • Respiratory rate.
  • Lung capacity.

Technical Features

  • Android application to wirelessly control the hardware equipment.
  • Bluetooth communication protocol between the hardware equipment and the application.
  • ShiftBrite RGB LED control.
  • Function LEDs control via multiplexer.
  • Needs an external input voltatge (10V, -5V and GND input)

Android Application

The next pictures shows the Android application and its friendly user interface. It has a page and instructions for each health functionality and a Bluetooth communication protocol, totally transparent to user. The application Project is located in the 'Android' folder
