Transferring Data from Glucometer to Mobile Device Via Bluetooth with Arduino Technology
Abstract
Being healthy is
undoubtedly an indispensable necessity for human life. With technological
improvements, in the literature, various health monitoring and imaging systems
have been developed to satisfy your health needs. In this context, the work of
monitoring and recording the data of individual health monitoring data via
wireless technology is also being part of these studies. Nowadays, mobile
devices which are located in almost every house
and which become indispensable of our life and have wireless technology
infrastructure have an important place of making follow-up health everywhere
and every time because these devices were using in the health monitoring systems.
In this study, Arduino an open-source microcontroller card was used in which a
sample glucose measuring device was connected in series. In this way, the
glucose data (glucose ratio, time) obtained with the glucometer is transferred
to the mobile device based on the Android operating system with the Bluetooth
technology channel. A mobile application was developed using the Apache Cordova
framework for listing data, presenting graphically and reading data over
Arduino. Apache Cordova, HTML, Javascript and CSS are used in coding section.
The data received from the glucometer is stored in the local database of the
mobile device. It is intended that people can transfer their measurements to
their mobile device by using wireless technology and access the graphical
representations of their data. In this context, the aim of the study is to be
able to perform health monitoring by using different wireless technologies in
mobile devices that can respond to different wireless technologies at present.
Thus, that will contribute the other works done in this area.
