Remote monitoring of elders using Internet of Things

Abstract

The internet of things (IoT) is an interconnected web-linked item system that identifies data gathering and transmission via a wireless network without human intervention. The monitoring system structure is defined while configuring distribution sensor devices. Connecting sensors may display the various device operations and modify them from anywhere to increase user flexibility. The developed sensors may be used to monitor, maintain and protect numerous settings. IoT has played a large part in the care of the elderly. It consists of various components, which include Microcontroller, GPRS and WI-FI Module, and various Sensors. They need adequate health care and surveillance. Our effort is primarily to create a health surveillance system and a failure detection system, providing user warnings if the usual state changes. The health-based monitoring system comprises sensors that measures heart rate, SpO2 level, and body temperature. In this system and the GSM module, we are using a third-party API to send the alerts.
