Abstract
The paper presents design and
development of optical blood pressure sensingkit
based on Microcontroller and Bluetooth
transmission. Blood pressure is one of the important
vital signs that need to be monitored for personal
healthcare. The aim of this project is to construct an
optical system and to monitor blood pressure
continuously without use of any cuff or supervision.
It is a monitoring system that uses an IR light source
and a luminosity sensor to measure the blood
pressure. The optical pulsatile method of blood
pressure measurement is used to gather pulse data
obtained from various parts of body. Blood pressure
readings are calculated with the help of developed
algorithm and transmitted via Bluetooth module to
the computer. Numerical reading values of systolic
and diastolic blood pressure are recorded and
displayed on the computer.
