The document discusses designing an emergency detection system using wearable devices and mobile phones. The system would use sensors to monitor vital signs like respiratory rate, heart rate, and oxygen saturation of a person involved in an accident. If the vital signs exceed thresholds, the mobile phone would alert emergency services and transmit the person's location and medical history to facilitate treatment. Key challenges include accurately detecting emergencies, measuring vital signs quickly, reducing costs, and ensuring small device size for user acceptance. Alternative approaches like integrating sensors in vehicles or using speech recognition are also proposed.
Such a large number of patients in India lose their lives because the ambulance does not arrive on time or delay in the treatment. Also, in view of the increasing technology and other factors, it is necessary to be aware of such technologies to reduce this problem. A survey conducted in St Petersburg found that the rest of the countries are aware of the technology to find out where the ambulance is and alert the patient to get the crisis vehicle at the ideal time. For this, algorithms like weighted graphs, Dijkstra's algorithm, ant colony algorithm, dynamic shortest path have been used in that system. These algorithms are reduced the traveling time by 20%. Therefore, the chances of patient saving increased. In this system only 2 smartphones will have for conversation between patient and ambulance and it is fully automated. As we have found in India, if there is a accident at any spot, we are called complementary number or crisis number. After informing where the accident took place on that call, the ambulance is then dispatched from the control room at that particular place, and then the control room gives the details of the nearest hospital and then informs to the hospital. With this proposed system, the ambulance can be transported without delay from the accident site to the hospital we can easily find the shortest route between the accident site and the hospital reduce wasting time. The user no longer need to call and check the availability of the ambulance. So basically this system uses IoT, GPS and GSM, Dijkstra's algorithm. It uses IoT principle using rest API to check traffic, as well as IoT for traffic signal checking. The RF transmitter is installed in the ambulance and the RF receiver is installed in the traffic light. This changes the signal for a short time to get to the ambulance. In addition, the ambulance finding route is helps by the dijkstra's algorithm to find the shortest path. In this, the android app understands the location of the patient or the crash site, then the system checks which ambulance is within 5 kilometers and sends an alert or request to one of the ambulances and then after accepting the request, the driver understands the location of the crash site.
Based on 4 months of post pandemic conversations with health leaders and hospitals on the ground, these are my observations on how AI is shaping up to help hospitals across South East Asia.

RescueAlert-an accident detection and rescue mechanism IJECEIAES
With the increase of vehicles and cars of different kind and the large movement that occurs every day on the roads it was natural to observe an increase in traffic accidents, but the real dilemma lies in how to make the rescue process efficient. The problem that we want to solve is the response of ambulances towards accidents and the lengthy registration process of patients in hospitals. In the above two scenarios, the manual process of calling the ambulance leads to delay in rescue of patients from an accident and the delay in registration of patient leads to delay in medication or treatment of the patient. We want to make the process more efficient by automating accident detection for increasing the efficiency of the ambulance rescue process and by sending the details of the patient before the patient reaches the hospitals for faster treatment of patients. Along with this, alert messages will be sent to the family or friends of the patients to notify them as soon as an accident is detected.

Rehabilitation can restore function and prevent permanent deformities in patients with stroke. There is, however, only very few study on cost-effectiveness of rehabilitation. Our objective was to evaluate the low cost-utility for rehabilitation for the stroke individuals. The proposed system is called a biofeedback cane. The system consists of the gait analyzer and the iCane. The gait analyzer is designed for determining the maximum force that stroke individuals can apply on cane during walking. The iCane is an audio feedback cane which provides sound when stroke individuals lean their weight over the setting limit. The iCane is set with the weight bearing to each specific stroke individual by a physical therapist utilizing the gait analyzer to set this maximum weight bearing. In this paper, we present the designing of the iCane. The force sensitive resistor is used as the sensor for detecting the applied force on cane. The detailing of the hardware and the software are discussed.

White Paper: IoT Security – Protecting the Networked SocietyEricsson
The Internet of Things (IoT) is expanding rapidly, and is expected to comprise 18 billion connected devices by 2022. But the assumptions of trust which formed the backdrop to the early development of the internet no longer apply in the early stages of IoT development. Privacy and security concerns are ever increasing, especially given the growing significance of IoT in corporate, government, and critical infrastructure contexts. Likewise, the commodification of IoT components incorporated across diverse product ranges and deployed in both managed and unmanaged use cases brings significant security challenges and creates potential for novel types of attack. The proactive cooperation of all key stakeholders will be necessary to realize the considerable economic benefits of the IoT, while protecting security, safety, and privacy.
IoT is one of the transformational trends that will shape the future of businesses in 2017 and beyond. Many firms see big opportunity in IoT uses and enterprises start to believe that IoT holds the promise to enhance customer relationships and drive business growth by improving quality, productivity, and reliability on one side, and on the other side reducing costs, risk, and theft.

In the last decade the healthcare monitoring systems have drawn considerable attentions of the researchers. The prime goal was to develop a reliable patient monitoring system so that the healthcare professionals can monitor their patients, who are either hospitalized or executing their normal daily life activities. In this work we present a mobile device based wireless healthcare monitoring system that can provide real time online information about physiological conditions of a patient. Our proposed system is designed to measure and monitor important physiological data of a patient in order to accurately describe the status of her/his health and fitness. In addition the proposed system is able to send alarming message about the patient’s critical health data by text messages or by email reports. By using the information contained in the text or e-mail message the healthcare professional can provide necessary medical
advising. The system mainly consists of sensors, the data acquisition unit, microcontroller (i.e., Arduino), and software (i.e., LabVIEW). The patient’s temperature, heart beat rate, muscles, blood pressure, blood glucose level, and ECG data are monitored, displayed, and stored by our system. To ensure reliability and accuracy the proposed system has been field tested. The test results show that our system is able to measure the patient’s physiological data with a very high accuracy.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

1. Challenges in handling medical emergency in
real time and developing intelligent sensor
based IOT detection and reporting mechanism
-Ashish Agrawal
2. Introduction
Roads accidents are very common in busy city life. Whether it is due to carelessness of the driver or due
to bad traffic conditions, accurately detecting an emergency situation using vital health symptoms and
communicating the same to medical health centers for getting required immediate help, can go a long
way in saving lives and ensuring right treatment is available.
The first hour following an accident or injury is called the golden hour because that is when life-saving
techniques are the most effective. Reducing this time between injury and treatment has been the focus
of bio-medical researchers and medical authorities to provide the desired treatment to the patient.
This paper presents an approach in the direction of design of an emergency detector as a wearable gadget
on the person’s body and its network to the hospital to inform the emergency center to call an ambulance.
3. Car Manufacturer’s perspective:
Car manufacturers are always concerned on how they can make their car safer for drivers
Using mobility and wearable based solution how can we detect an accident and raise an
alarm
This alarm can be connected with nearby medical help center
Medical officer based on the criticality of the accident can provide required support which
can even include sending an ambulance to the accident spot
Measures of Evaluation: Key Challenges in handling medical emergency
For providing the best IOT based solution, it is very important to provide a robust, secure,
portable and low infrastructure based solution to make it practical and widely acceptable to the
target audience and system integrators.
Accuracy of detecting Vital signs correctly is one of the highest priority to prevent false alarm
and ensure that right diagnosis and treatment could be done. Below mentioned are key
measures and challenges deploying a workable model
• Detects critical condition
• Detects airway clarity
• Size
• Transmits data (Accuracy)
4. • Security
• Delay in transmission
• Ease of use
• Portability
• Battery / Power requirement
• False Alarms
Emergency Medical Services
Some of the products and works that facilitate better care in this period are ICU on wheels ambulance
and its wireless connectivity to hospitals. Also, medical protocols are defined to take care of such
situations in a systematic manner. Through this paper we are trying to come up with innovative ways to
deliver prehospital care in an accurate and cost effective manner.
Design Details
Immediate treatment within the golden period of an injury is the aim of this project. This section describes
the design of a mobile medical device that can automatically inform the appropriate nearest hospital (or
clinic) of a life-threatening emergency situation using a nearby mobile for its intermediate pathway.
5. Components of the proposed design

6. The concept:
The aim is to make wearable device like a watch that would detect emergency and
call an ambulance in case of life-threatening emergency. By continuously measuring
vital signs of the person, the device will be able to detect an emergency situation.
The device uses the mobile for its propagation of signal to the hospital.
How it will work?
In the case of accident detection, wearable device would measure the Respiratory
Rate (RR) at regular intervals (Tc) in time after previous check. A voice message
would come “Are you Okay?”
If the person thinks that this is incorrect detection i.e. he is alright OR if the situation
according to him is not that severe, then he can immediately switch off the
measurements by just pressing a button. If the person does not respond then the
wearable concludes that the airway is blocked and automatically signals over a
Bluetooth connection to the nearest mobile and the GPS location of the mobile is
transmitted to the nearest hospital with medical emergency system. If the person
responds saying something clearly (may be Yes or No or anything else), this would
imply that his/her airway is clear and the emergency needs to be verified by
measuring oxygen saturation and heart rate.
The RR would be measured again and now the device signals the nearest mobile and
the procedure of communication repeats if the RR is in critical range. If the RR value
is in normal range, then next step would be to measure oxygen saturation. If the
oxygen saturation value is out of normal range, then the mobile app is signaled to
call the ambulance, otherwise the device is deactivated until a sound threshold is
reached OR time Tc completed after previous check OR button is pressed. In the first
case of measuring RR, if the value of RR was normal, then also the same procedure
is followed and so on.

8. Predictive treatment
As mobile device or watch is a very personalized gadget and the proposed system is based on
the assumption that the device detecting the accident and identifying the human vital signs can
also correctly identity the person and along with accident location, vital signs numbers,
precious medical history of the person can also be send to EMS so that they can analyze
medical history and appropriate treatment can be given to the patient.
Medical history could include:
Blood group
Allergies
Any ongoing medication
Previous injury or treatment undertaken

10. Current capabilities of wearable device to detect human
vital signs
Following are the research publications talking about how human vital sign can be measures
and evaluated to detect emergency health situation

11. Challenges in meeting the expectation
Size and user friendly ness of the device
In-order to have mass acceptance of the idea, it is very important to assemble this
idea into a user friendly systems which could be a combination of mobile and watch
on user side.
Accuracy of detecting an accident
For the entire process to work, it is very critical to have the capability of mobile device
to accurately detect the accident scenario by using the combination of available car
parameters.
Time taken for measuring RR, HR, SpO2.
The time involved in sensing, processing, comparing one parameter and then the
other to conclude the health condition of the driver
Sensor
The technology of sensors is advancing and there are possibilities of better, more
accurate and smaller sensors that consume negligible power. Human vital signs
need to be evaluated correctly to raise correct alarm.
Cost reduction
Since the device is supposed to be an emergency detector, it should have an
affordable cost and easy deployment with minimal infrastructure cost.
Detecting the site of injury
The nearest hospital with appropriate facilities should be contacted depending on
the site of injury. The accident coordinates should be captured using mobile phone
GPS capability and system should be intelligent enough to reach the closest EMS
system.
12. The critical values of the vital signs
The range of normal values of vitals is quite different for athletes and normal
people. Also, the vitals may suddenly go out of normal range during exercise etc.
Different guidelines need to be set up for different cultures/professions regarding
usage of device or even the critical values need to be changed i.e. different devices
for athletes.
Mobile device capability
The smartphone device under discussion should have capabilities like
accelerometers, GPS, internet and Bluetooth to be able to carry out the required
functionalities.
Alternative approaches
In-case of an accident, there is a possibility that the wearable or mobile device might get
damaged and that would break the system link.
Also in-order to tackle harm to sensor device or unavailability of senor following alternative
approaches can be used for implementation
1. Accident detection and communication with EMS can be in-build into the car
system.
- To make the whole solution more cost effective this solution can also be
in-build in to the car system. This could be given as an offering by the car
manufacturer. Based on the detection of accident, the car radio system
can communicate with EMS for urgent medical help by sending the
coordinated of accident.
13. 2. Speech recognition based approach for triggering medical help
- Personal speech recognition can also be used to detect the urgency of
medical help required. In-case of accident detection, the device can
trigger an alarm which will ask the user if he is ok, if the device gets a
legitimate response within a given time internal it can assume that user is
in stable condition or either with user discretion or due to lack of
response, the system can notify the EMS with location co-ordinates for
get required medical help.
3. Traffic police with sensor device availability can help in doing initial
evaluation of the criticality and initiating medical help
- During the case of accident, traffic police are generally rushed to the
accident site to access the situation and help in getting the required
medical help. If the traffic police can be given the sensor device which
can measure the critical signs of the person and share with the same with
nearby EMS which can plan and provide the requirement treatment.
