Quarantine Wristband Using IoT

Abstract-The quarantine wristband is a wearable device that monitors the location of the patient and alerts when the person moves out of the quarantined area. It also measures the heart rate, blood oxygen level, and temperature of the patient wearing the band. It alerts when the patient needs an emergency on pressing the emergency button or SOS button. Also detects any tamper in the wearable device. All these data are then displayed and can be accessed in the cloud using the open-source IoT platform. The health department can access it and take the necessary action for those in need. This device may help the government better monitor and manage the quarantine of people during the pandemic. Wearable devices assist the subject in quarantine to comply with medical regimens and limitations; hence, a wearable band would be a good solution in this situation. A quarantine wristband using IoT (internet of things), that would detect and track the quarantine subjects in real-time was thus developed. This allows a patient in isolation to monitor his or her own health while simultaneously being accessible to health authorities. This Quarantine Wristband having a simple design was developed considering the cost, global supply chain disruption, and other factors.
