Welcome to blog 5 of Neonatal Incubator Monitoring System. Up until now, we have explored how to interface various sensors with the PSoC 62S4 pioneer kit, including the Ambient Light & Temperature sensor, Heart Rate sensor, and how to interface with an ESP32 and IoT sense expansion kit. Additionally, we learned how to display serial data on a Blynk dashboard using the ESP32 and the Blynk IoT platform, which can help create personalized dashboards and send alerts to doctors or caretakers from any location worldwide.

Wrapping up the Project
In these project blogs, we have created equipment that can monitor biological parameters to ensure the safety of premature babies and reduce mortality rates. Hospitals use sensors and electrodes to continuously monitor the vital signs of these infants, which are then displayed on a monitor. In case of any abnormality, an alarm system is triggered to alert healthcare providers.
The sensors used for monitoring the vital signs of premature infants include a pulse oximeter, which measures the oxygen saturation level and pulse rate of the infant. A humidity sensor is also used to measure the relative humidity inside the incubator, and temperature sensors are used for measuring the temperature of both the infant and the incubator. By continuously monitoring these parameters, healthcare providers can ensure that the infant is in a safe and stable condition. Any abnormality in the readings will trigger an alarm, allowing healthcare providers to take immediate action.
Overall, monitoring the vital signs of premature infants is crucial for their well-being and survival. By using sensors and advanced monitoring systems, healthcare providers can ensure that premature babies receive the best possible care and attention.
Vote of Thanks
I just wanted to give a shout-out to Element14 and Infineon for putting together such an awesome contest - "At the Core Design Contest". It was an incredible opportunity for all the tech enthusiasts out there to showcase their skills and bring their innovative ideas to life. And of course, a big thank you to all the readers and participants who supported the contest with their valuable time and energy. You guys rock! Let's hope for more exciting contests like this in the future!
