Abstract

The Heart Rate Monitoring system is developed using IOT technology with an objective of detecting the heartbeat of the patient in order to monitor the risk of heart attack and also the regular checkup. Body health monitoring is very important to us to make sure our health is in excellent condition. One of the vital parameter for this device under consideration is the heart rate (HR). In this project we describe the design of low cost heart rate monitoring device from fingertips based on the Bluetooth technology. The entire system is comprised of several parts such as Heart Rate module, Android application and Bluetooth module. The Heart Rate (HR) module picks up heart rate signal by a noninvasive technique (Photoplethysmography) from the subject (patients) and sends it (signal) wirelessly to computer or android application using Bluetooth module. This system can be embraced and combined as a part of telemedicine constituent. The data received from heart rate module can be saved and viewed for further medical usage. The result from this device prototype can be utilized for various clinical investigations, indeed these Bluetooth�s signal can be transmitted between 15 to 20 meters radius
