A Novel system for Tracking and Screening COVID Patients

Abstract

The wandering of older persons with Covid is one of the several behavioral difficulties that they experience, and it is the source of the most anxiety for their caregivers. Using a novel mobile phone-based safety assistance system, we have been able to relay information about a wandering individual's whereabouts to others who are near that person. The wearable sensor is made up of a GSM module, an Arduino UNO, and a GPS module. It is possible to determine the position of the wandering individual after they have beyond a particular meter. When the old person leaves the area, the GSM transmits the position of the wandering elderly person, which is determined with the aid of GPS. The server computer sends an SMS to the caregiver to notify him or her of the situation. The caregiver may keep track of the wandering person's whereabouts on a map by connecting to the Internet.
