Selling Points Lower cost Costs $1,055 Competitor products cost at least $10,000 Portable More versatile Combines wetness and inactivity detection Utilizes RFID to prevent improper medication administration Appealing Graphical User Display
20
Future Considerations Use a smaller, cheaper microcontroller such as a PIC Implement systems on a PCB Find smaller wrist/ankle band active RFID tags
21
PIC Microcontroller Used for integrating wetness detection, inactivity monitoring, and patient identification systems into a low-cost power-efficient package Low power operation using 3V coin cell battery Programmed in C via 6-pin header through PICkit2 RS232 communication to PC using onboard UART Pushbutton and LED for debugging
22
PIC for Inexpensive System Integration RFID Implement either using RS232 with current reader or SPI enabled reader Inactivity monitoring Sample force sensing resistors using onboard ADC Wetness detection Sample output of comparators using digital input LCD for display of system status
23
Demonstration Plan Inactivity Detection Group member lays for extended period of time. LCD monitor displays inactivity alarm Patient Identification RFID tag located within antenna range LCD monitor displays patient name LCD monitor displays patient medication barcode Wetness Detection Salt water poured on bed LCD monitor displays wetness alarm
