M+: A Novel IoT Device for Reducing the Physiological & Psychological Effects of Noise Pollution on Humans

With the growing advancement in technology, IoT is exposing a new paradigm that is slowly creeping into all facets of human life. IoT has revolutionized the way we live our lives today. Smart watches, health-meters, fit bits, smart clothes, smart lenses, smart refrigerators, etc. are being graciously accepted by the community. The IoT arena has come to the fore to make our life convenient and comfortable. However, there are some grave problems such as pollution that can be tackled with the help of IoT for the longevity of life on this planet. The paper focuses on noise pollution parameter and proposes a cost-effective solution for managing its consequences. The paper discloses a novel invention in the field of IoT for reducing the physiological and psychological effects of noise pollution on humans. We have proposed a wearable product M
⁺
that smartly monitors blood pressure and heart-rate of a person. Further, M
⁺
has an `anti-noise' technology embedded into its framework which is synchronized with the above two health parameters.
