ABSTRACT
In the current pandemic situation, we need to follow certain precautionary measures to safeguard us from the deadly virus. We have been able to contain the virus to a certain extent through social distancing, by sanitizing ourselves and sterilizing the daily-use items. Monitoring the vitals like body temperature, oxygen saturation, and pulse rate has proven to be effective in diagnosing the fatal disease. In this proposed method, we have come up with a solution to help the user to keep a check on the important parameters mentioned above by incorporating various sensors like MLX90614 non-contact infrared temperature sensor, SpO2 sensor, pulse rate sensor, and ultrasonic sensor in a shirt- CoviGuard. The vitals are displayed on an IOT application called ThingSpeak. A buzzer is used to indicate if the user doesn't maintain the specified distance of 0.5 meters. © 2023 IEEE.
ABSTRACT
Uncollected filled bins during the COVID pandemic in hospitals and at home are a common issue these days. This becomes a source of community spread of COVID-19. Here the key issue is unsanitary waste management, which can be controlled by an efficient IoT-based smart bin system to present garbage level collected in bins in 'COVID' wards through the use of ultrasonic sensor which stops rubbish from overflowing from smart bins and a gas sensor to determine if any dangerous gases are emitted. The virus and pathogens are neutralized with the help of ultraviolet rays. A rechargeable battery that runs on a solar Piezo hybrid power charges the system. As a result, the bin tends to minimize the potential of infectious illness transmitted to healthcare professionals. Smart bins will prevent overflowing waste from the bins and also stop unsanitary conditions from prevailing nearby. It is a straightforward yet incredibly valuable concept. © 2023 IEEE.
