SMART IOT BASED INFANT INCUBATOR SYSTEM

Abstract

The project proposes the development of a smart infant incubator monitoring and control system that uses IoT technology to customize the care and monitoring of premature and critically ill newborns. As the system is interfaced with advanced sensors, actuators, and connective solutions to create a smart and responsive incubator environment. The system adopts with some key components such as temperature and humidity sensor for precise check of environmental conditions, gas sensor, heartbeat sensor, to monitor the infant’s conditions inside the incubator and actuators such as dc fan module is integrated to adjust the environmental conditions according to the threshold range on the processed sensor data. An LCD display provides the local feedback, while buzzer alerts the caretakers at time of critical periods. These sensors collectively provide data for the parameters as a Wi-Fi enabled microcontroller such as Arduino Wi-Fi R3 is utilized to process and transmit data which also communicates with cloud based IoT platforms. IoT application was developed using Thing speak to build an ideal communication through a Wi-Fi module, Healthcare providers can regularly monitor the infant’s condition through a designed web or mobile interface. The developed IoT interface provides real-time data acquisition, and the system incorporates automated alert mechanism by integrating a wifi module. In the matter of change in normalities beyond the threshold ranges, an automated alert message will be forwarded to the attentive doctor or caretaker through web server
