Abstract
The challenge of taking care of aged patients who lost control of their bladders and bowel movements is to respond to the patients' needs in a timely manner, which often requires a caretaker (e.g., a family member or a hired assistant) to stay on watch 24/7. In light of advance in cloud computing, we present a real-time low-cost low-power monitoring and notification system that can continuously monitor the patient bedding conditions, detect the conditions that help is needed and notify the care-takers. The system consists of TI SensorTags, Raspberry Pis, and IBM Bluemix. The TI SensorTag is a sensing device, while Raspberry Pi acts as a messenger receiving data collected by TI SensorTags via Bluetooth technology and transmitting the data to Bluemix, a cloud based platform developed by IBM, via WiFi. The low power Bluetooth communication enables a longer sensor battery life. The system design and operation of a working prototype will be described in this paper.
