Automated Paralysis Patient Monitoring System

Abstract

Paralytic people in most cases are not able to convey their needs as they are neither able to speak properly nor do they convey through sign language due to loss in motor control by their brain. In such a situation, our proposed system helps the disabled person in displaying a message over the LCD by simple motion of their hand. The proposed system works by reading the various tilt directions of the hand. The transmitter is attached to a glove which is worn by patient. User just needs to tilt the device in different directions to convey different messages. An accelerometer is used to measure the statistics of motion. It then passes on this data to the microcontroller which processes the data and displays the particular message as per the input obtained. It sounds a buzzer along with the message as soon as it receives motion signal from the accelerometer. The data is then transmitted online to IOT Adafruit server and the message is displayed online. With the help of this system, the patients affected by paralysis can convey their important needs to others.
