Abstract
Risks to one's health can arise for both corporate employees and individuals working in mines, factories, or construction sites. On occasion, they must deal with dangerous circumstances like fire, water, rockfall, poisonous chemical releases at work, poor ventilation, etc. Several workers thus experience breathing difficulties, heart attacks, hypertension, etc. In addition, women who work face the risk of harassment, theft, etc. Even those who unavoidably suffer accidents while away from home for work or any other reason regularly fail to notify their families or have delays in seeking medical care. In this study, an Android app and a smart wristband are proposed which will measure wearer's body temperature, heart rate, pulse, and levels of oxygen saturation and send the data to the Android application on the user's mobile device with the 4G long term evolution (4G LTE) module and the internet of things (IoT) framework. This app will even update the user's family about mishappenings.
