Project Abstract The aim of the project is to create a prototype of a portable wireless biometric sensor that can provide doctors/nurses with an efficient way of handling multiple patients in a hospital environment. The main advantages this device would have over conventional monitors are it’s portability, unobtrusive nature and size. The battery-powered device is mounted on the wrist and monitors vital health parameters such as pulse rate, SpO2 and skin temperature then transmits the information via WiFi for remote web access. In addition, a NFC chip embedded on the device will allow immediate access to a patient’s charts on any NFC compatible device. The device will also include fall detection as well as a manual and automatic alarm system.
Packaging Design Constraints Portable - The device must me portable such that a patient may move around while carrying it. It should operate wirelessly so as to enable patient mobility. Light weight – The device must be light weight. Since the average weight of a smart phone is 120 g, we are targeting something on the order of 100-150g. Small – The device needs to be small since it needs to be mounted on to the users wrist. We are aiming to make the breadth less than 5 cm. The average wrist is approximately 4.7cm in diameter.
