Details: The emergency health monitoring device with notification system will be designed in this project to support a group of senior citizens and patients who are unable to walk steadily and who may have heart diseases and other health problems. These people are more prone to accidental falls and have more chance to have strokes while taking walk or doing daily activities. This system will decide using body temperature sensor, heart beat signal and is able to detect accidental fall. The device will use Bluetooth communication to smart phone and initiate emergency call, send text and call for ambulance for emergency help.

Project outcome:
• The wearable device captures abnormal heart beat signals.
• The alert system on the wearable device warns the user to realize his health condition.
• Bluetooth wireless emergency calling system calls for help at the moment of heart attack via mobile phone.
• Warning mode giving the users a chance to avoid the fatal moment actively.
• Pairing with the phone also helpful to get the patients GPS location.
• The total circuit should have low power consumption with one main power supply so that the user does not need to change the battery often (within a month).
