In this project, I built a relatively unobtrusive wearable armband for monitoring health state of kids. The armband senses the kid’s physiological data (e.g. temperature, heart rate, and activity level) and communicates them to a smartphone. The smartphone runs and app that detects the situation in which the kid moves from a healthy state to a compromised state.
