Introduction

This project involves the creation of a cost-effective health band that utilizes the ESP 32 microcontroller and various sensors to monitor heart rate and oxygen levels in real time. One of the standout features of this health band is its ability to alert a designated person immediately in emergency situations, ensuring timely assistance.

Problem Definition

The inspiration behind this project stems from a critical issue observed in war zones. Often, soldiers who are wounded go untreated because their location is unknown or their status is uncertain. This lack of immediate medical information leads to the preventable deaths of many soldiers who could have otherwise been treated and saved. The health band aims to address this urgent need by providing real-time health data and location information.

Aim of The Work

The primary goal of this project is to continuously monitor a patient’s vital signs and send notifications in case of an emergency. The health band employs GPS technology to track location, while the ESP 32 microcontroller, combined with the Gy-30100 sensor, monitors heart rate and oxygen levels. By integrating these technologies, the project aims to provide a robust solution for enhancing patient care, especially in critical and remote situations.

This graduation project is the work of Hussein Ghassan from the systems engineering department, supervised by Assistant Lecturer. Noor Ayed.
