Real Time Infants monitoring by developing an Embedded Device for incubator
Journal Title: International Journal of Research in Computer and Communication Technology - Year 2013, Vol 2, Issue 10
Abstract
An Incubator is an apparatus for maintaining an infant, especially one that is ill or born before the usual gestation period. Continuous monitoring of physiological parameters is very often necessary for the evaluation of health conditions, diagnostic reasons and the detection of life or health threatening events. For infants, especially, who cannot provide any feedback about discomfort or health complaints it is an important issue to collect objective data under everyday conditions. This research work provides design of embedded device for real time monitoring of infants. The Embedded device includes sensors for Door Security, Light Intensity, Voice detection of incubator for the continuous monitoring of infants under clinical and home conditions. It will allow the early detection of potential life threatening events. The device would involve DSPIC microcontroller (Part no: 330011 is used for transmitting the audio signals, from the incubator, the microcontroller will generate control signals for the given parameters. The system will monitor the 3 parameters Door, Light, Audio/ voice of the baby that he/she is ok or crying. The Door parameter provides an Intruder bell it will gives alarm/Led indication if any person will come at the place /Room of baby by breaking the sensor. Light Intensity can be monitored by using LDR (Light dependent register). All these parameters are continuously monitored by system & will display the status on LEDs or gives alarm.
