Abstract:
Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) is the death among infant younger than one-year-old, and the cause of deaths remain unexplained, many countries suffer from high infant mortality rate. This system is a portable device capable of continuous health monitoring for neonates. It has integrated with low-cost hardware and software to help parents and caregivers to detect a problem early. Health status is displayed on the web site so that the parent and care given can monitor and access the infant's health information anywhere at any time. This system consists of a bio-sensor (temperature and heart pulse and 6-axis motion) connected with Arduino Nano and Wi-Fi module to send data to the web site. Moreover, in emergency cases, the alarm unit is used to notify parents and caregivers. The main interest in using this device is to provide a low-cost system with 24-hour monitoring of an infant's wellness rather than illness. Since we used different sensors, using the Kalman filter can combine information from any number of redundant sensors. According to the accuracy and error rates calculated, the developed system can be less expensive and acceptable.
