Project Details

This project centered on the development of firmware for a sophisticated wearable health monitoring device. The firmware is responsible for accurately tracking a range of vital signs, including heart rate, SpO2, activity levels, and sleep patterns. A primary focus was aggressive power optimization to achieve extended battery life, critical for user convenience. Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) connectivity was implemented for seamless data synchronization with a companion mobile application. The firmware also includes algorithms for data processing and anomaly detection directly on the device. Challenges included managing real-time sensor data acquisition, implementing power-saving modes effectively, and ensuring reliable BLE communication while maintaining data integrity and security. The device aims to provide users with valuable health insights and promote a proactive approach to personal well-being.
