IoT Communication for the Health Facilities and Sensors

This study aims to develop a system for wireless health monitoring that is comprehensive, accurate, and capable of displaying health parameters, all in real time using Bluetoothenabled devices, specifically the HX711 sensor (for the weight assessment) and the MAX30100 sensor (for monitoring heart rate and oxygen saturation.), all of which uses the I2C protocol for seamless data transmission. Vital sign monitoring is an important metric, which may be cumbersome due to immobile equipment. The primary focus of this study is to provide patients with a streamlined solution to mobility and comfort, all the while providing continuous monitoring of vital signs without disrupting daily activities. The results and experimentation has demonstrated the effectiveness of data transmission using Bluetooth, highlighting the potential for Bluetooth-communications beyond an USB port connection. The effective range being around 8 to 15 meters in range, which is suitable for room and hall environments, with only a few limitations, being the difficulty in handling large amounts of data.
