Abstract

Over the last severalyears, there are a number ofconvincing development steps in the areaof Internet-of-Things (IoT)which enables a way for the development ofmany novel and fascinating applications. Today, real time monitoringof patient’s healthis very difficult. So to bring the concept of real time monitoring of patient’s health,this project proposes a idealIoT enabled architecture for heart ratemonitoring system. Staying ideallyto the IoT vision, it relies on different, yet smart, technologies, specifically WSN(Wireless Sensor Networks), smart mobile, which are interoperating with each other through a wide varietyof IoT protocols. The designedsystem will be collecting the patient heart rate in real time and monitoring any drastic change in the reading. The system also monitors the surrounding environment conditions of the patient too. The parameters obtained are then published to the internet. Later amobile basedapplication(android)will be developed so that thesesensory data's can be accessedfrom anywhere using this app. For supporting theIoT functionalities an internet enabled board called Raspberry Piis used.
