BACKGROUND
CE 2.2
Now a day’s technology is changing with time, it completely occupying the human life style. It is being used everywhere in our daily life to fulfil our requirements. Humans are relying more on sensors, we are employing different sensors for different applications sometimes we may even use same sensors differently for different applications. We can not only increase the speed of life but also increase security with good ideas by

This device consists of a microcontroller which takes the input from the heart beat sensor and calculates the heart rate of the patient. When the microcontroller identifies the high BP, it takes the responsibility of sending an alert message through GSM modem.

In this project my aim is to develop a heartbeat sensing sensor using LED and LDR using a technique called photoplethysmograph(PPG) which is simple and cost efficient, typically an emitter and receiver combination (LED and LDR) is used to identify the heart beat changes occurred. The light emitting diode is used to pass light through the skin the reflected back light(PPG signal) was collected by the LDR to omit an heartbeat rate. Also the reflected light is determined as the blood saturation.
CE 2.5 This project was coordinated by our senior associate professor Mr. D. Krishna, under his guidance I have finished my project.
He divided the project into multiple tasks and allotted different tasks to different team members.
Before finalizing the tasks he has gone through academic performance of students in particular areas. When he identified that I have good knowledge in developing circuit and sensors, he gave me tasks like circuit designing and sensor development.
CE 2.6 In this project I have undergone major tasks and duties,

Opposite to some popular wisdom, retail stores are not dead, and they will not be replaced by online operations. People (who use a product or service) continue to spend money at retail establishments, if for no other reason than to see the physical products that they might later order online. The store's goal in this competitive (surrounding conditions) is to make the retail outlet and its products so attractive that the (related to people who use a product or service) (instances of buying things for money) the product right then and there, rather than ordering it electronically. LED lighting for retail outlets has made strong toward this goal.
Each of these monitors is designed to alarm nursing staff whenever a drastic change has occurred with a patient’s condition. For example, if a patient’s heart rate drops below sixty beats per minute then an alarm will sound to alert the nurse that the patient has become bradycardic. These alarms are intended to protect the patient from harm and ensure that they receive timely interventions from nursing staff and physicians (AAMI, 2011).
Step 6. Next, we made the project schedule that broke down the resource assignments and identified who would do each task.
The book 1984, written by George Orwell was a revolutionary novel about his prediction of the future, which showed people with hardly any independent power and under constant surveillance by “the party”. At the time this book came out (1949) the future Orwell described seemed like pure fiction, but as the years go by the future he envisioned is becoming more and more like a reality. The main thing that is creating this reality is today’s technology, which could be used to track or get information from people, similar to technology in 1984.
The technology uses several assorted merchant-specific pieces of hardware and software to help both the bedside and tele-ICU teams. Information that is available to the bedside team is also able to be easily accessed by the tele-ICU team in real-time. Information such as vital signs, laboratory results, diagnostic imaging, orders, and notes are used to evaluate the patient status enabling both the bedside team and tele-ICU team to be able to determine the likelihood of whether a problem may arise (Lilly and Thomas 2010). Any slight change in the patient’s conditions sends an alert signal that is able to be evaluated for severity in whether an intervention must be done or not to prevent the patient from becoming
The heart rate sensor measures heart rate using a method called photo-plethysmography. Because of the fact that blood is red, reflects red light and absorbs green light, green LED lights paired with light sensitive photodiodes are used to detect the amount of blood flowing through the wrist at
Physiological Monitoring. The Philips patient monitoring system can be centrally managed and has the ability to send patient alarm data from the medical device via a transmission protocol to the middleware alarm system. The system also has localized visibility and audible sounds on the local patient monitor inside the patient room
Security is really important in our life. Because so many people use technology in their life and technology very helpfully.And beside of that, security problem is our top priority. And there a lot of hacker who want to steal our information. That’s the reason why we need to carefully with technology and our gadget too.
Bill Siwicki article (Siwicki, 2017) in Healthcare IT News speaks about AT&T and Zywie Inc. teaming up to offer a highly secure and easily accessible telemetry monitoring system. Zywie Inc. developed a cardiac monitoring system called ZywiePro. This system offers holter, event or Mobile Cardiac Telemetry all in one device that is used to detect cardiovascular arrhythmias. This device can monitor patients at a minimum of 1 day and a maximum of 1 month. If an irregular rhythm is suspected by the ZywiePro system, it is wirelessly transmitted through the AT&T network (Siwicki, 2017). This device offers several great benefits to healthcare providers. This includes being able to access the program on any AT&T device at any time. As we all know, providers
They came up with an Internet-connected blood pressure and weight scale cuff that sends the patient’s data to this medical team for evaluation. They can keep track of each individual’s health issues and alert the patient if needed concerning their health. This health tracking devices has helped man save money by spending less by avoiding unnecessary doctor visits and helps lower the amount of readmission in hospitals. It can even help save lives. This group is planning to take it further and expand this device, making it available to more than just heart failure patients. They hope to help as many as possible through this device by keeping more people healthy and/or more aware of their
• Electric pulses prompt heart to beat at a certain rate (that is considered ‘normal’)
The device is designed to be simple and easily access for the patient. It composes of two main parts; inflatable cuff, in which the cuff’s inner layer is filled with air and hence can squeeze your arm for taking readings of heart rate and blood flow. The second part is the gauge for readout which the monitor takes multiple readings as well as calculate the average.
Burrus explain vehemently The Internet of Things is more than an article of convenience, rather a wide-ranging system that can contribute to the overall Safety and Security of a society Through the utilisation of smart materials being linked with the tools that average people use in their day-to-day lives. One such example, Burrus uses is the development it would contribute to the overall safety of constructing a large highway bridge. Burrus, sites to separate scenarios where this newly-developed cement could provide an incomparable contribution to public safety as a whole.
With the click of a button or a tap on a screen, you can discover profound knowledge, it navigates you to where you need to go, or it even tells you miscellaneous things such as which place to go to get the best pumpkin spice latte. The Internet of things has significantly impacted everyday lives and continues to develop throughout generations. It refers to pertinent things such as the ever-growing networks of everyday physical objects, and other internet-enabled systems and devices which process and analyze large and fast-moving data set along each other. To sum it up, the internet of things is a fast growing network of materials where everything is synced and can collect as well as exchange data using sensors that are embedded in devices. Although individuals believe that the Internet of Things (IoT) consequently, will strip every one of privacy and security, the internet of things ought to be utilized in society as it positively transforms the way you live and relate to our environment to make it more productive and useful for us.
