PROPOSAL• To design a machine to machine device that will take data from the

pulse/heart rate or temperature of a human being measured and sent to one monitoring device via LAN as digital data and the samples will be analysed for a threshold level .

• if it exceeds it then person will not be allowed to drive the vehicle for these results will be compared with the parameters of a human body after alcohol consumption. This incorporates medical and disaster applications both.

• The data can be sent to medical professionals at the back end and the person can be warned of the health hazards as well as incorporating this will regulate and reduce the number of road accidents that take place due to reckless and drunk driving .

• A video conferencing mode is added so as to provide a direct communication between patient and health care professional.

WORK TILL NOW• Extensive study on M2M architecture and applications.

• Installation of support packages for raspberry pi in Simulink.

• Configuring the raspberry pi to the electronics department internet network.

• Running the image inversion algorithm in raspberry pi. Captured the image on my laptop, connected USB webcam on raspberry pi and sent the image to this camera via Simulink model and LAN.

• Took output from the GPIO (general purpose input output) pin and checked the voltage and glowed a led.

• Gave input to the GPIO pins via a button and tried to check the output of another pin.

• Measured the body temperature (hands and neck) using dht11 sensor and dumped Simulink model on raspberry pi and logged the signals and drew the graph.

• The video capture mode was configured where the webcam being connected to raspberry pi sent me the video as well as the temperature information.

BACKGROUND OF THE WORK UNDERTAKEN

• The camera module and the temperature sensing module both work together and establish a data sending and communication between the two people at end without much human interference.

• The front end can be a patient and at the back end a security personnel or health care specialist.

• The security personnel can analyse the body temperature data and detect a drunk driving case or else the health care specialist can check for health hazards while the person is explaining his/her problem via the video module.

PROCEDURE• Connect the DHT11 with raspberry pi as shown

• Plug in the Ethernet and camera module in the raspberry pi.

• Make the necessary model in Simulink and set the Model Configuration parameters like the Name of device, IP address, Sampling time etc.

• Deploy the model on the hardware in external mode.

• The Run button is starts the simulation, the running status and time spent can be seen.

• The simulation stops after the time set gets expired.

RESULTS

FURTHER WORK INTENDED

• Infra red sensor module needs to be added to check for the heart beat/pulse signals of the patient or suspect.

• Refinement for better modules to reduce time complexity.

• Less human interference.

• Replacing Simulink blocks by Python codes.

• Connecting the data logging to google spreadsheet and share it over the network for better storage and access which can be further analysed.

• Accurate graphs, providing concrete analysis and strong inferences.
