Abstract: | <p>A smart, integrated temperature, light and humidity monitoring system has been implemented with the use of open standard technology, commercial project and household items which actively monitors the environmental conditions. A main target for this system is to have it designed and implemented as cost efficient as possible. The system allows for a user to input the desired conditions regarding a specific patient’s temperature, lighting and humidity requirements. A microcontroller then compares the environmental conditions against the user’s input requirements, and actuators change the settings until the desired conditions have been obtained. The designed system is for use in the hospital environment, with emphasis on the neonatal ward, where infants remain in incubators for a period of time. Results indicate the hospital monitoring system is feasible; however, ensuring an enclosed room may be difficult to obtain.</p> |
