Abstract

With advancements in Sensor Technology, the Wireless Sensor networks (WAN) offer attractive solutions to many problems in process monitoring systems. The WSN has abundant applications in continuous or discrete monitoring systems irrespective of the field. The Bio-compatible wearable sensors allow vast amounts of data to be collected and mined for clinical trials, reducing the cost and inconvenience of regular visits to the physician. Implying this concept, our project is used to track diabetes using a wireless sensor network as an implant to continuously monitor the patient’s blood glucose level. The sensor implanted in the body identifies the level of glucose in blood. The level thus measured needs to be monitored. The most conveniently used method to monitor the implant would be to use a detector to telemeter the collected sugar concentration to an external receiver. In the case of our project, we aim to replace the detector by transmitting the monitored data as a message to the patient’s cell phone itself. This is a simple and an efficient way to make the process less strain full for the patient and also relatively cheaper. Thus the sensor can effectively monitor the glucose level and can also send a notification message to the patient, thereby reducing the need of tedious physical processes by the use of smart futuristic technology.
