Abstract:
In today’s World everyone is looking for the automation so that the work needed to be performed is done easily, accurately and efficiently. The same stands good for the daily routine work and office work from simple tasks to the one which are highly complex in nature.
The concept of IoT [11] devices was built to make the life comfortable and to automate the things so that they can be operated from anywhere through Internet. This project “Android Based Patient Room Automation” revolves around the same concept.
The system provides automated atmosphere to the patients and maintenance staff in hospitals in order to make them comfortable and provide congenial environment. The system consists of Arduino based hardware module along with Java based android application for controlling various appliances/facilities/electric equipment in modern patient rooms in hospitals which are easy to operate and give the congenial environment to the patients specially the handicapped / war wounded patients which are deprived of operating these facilities due to their physical limitations.
The software application is designed to be user friendly for ease in operating without technical details. The list of appliances/facilities will be displayed which will be modified/operated by the user.
The hardware module consists of the Arduino board which is programmed to receive the instructions and further change the status of particular device/ electric load.
The system can be used in modern hospitals in order to provide comfortable environment to the users. The same can be used in CMHs where the war wounded patients are given treatment. The system provide great room for further improvements/ modifications as it commensurate with the concept of IoT[11] devices used today.
