temperature monitoring device help

10/25/2008 11:23 AM

hi!! could somebody help me with my thesis project

we will be having a temperature monitoring device. we will be using a temperature probe that will be connected to hospital patients. The measured temperature will be displayed in a LCD. If the temperature goes outside the range of 36-38 degree celcius, which is considered to be normal range, a <Led will light and buzz will be heard

The users can also set the time interval in which the temperature will be recorded. If the user set 2 hours, the temperature of the patient will be recorded every two hours. The user can browse the previous recorded temperature.

Any suggestions for this project. any help in the circuit and source code will be deeply appreciated. thank you.

Browse for picaxe.com they have digital temperature sensors and control boards using PICs to do this easily. Download their software and look in the help files.

There are lots of digital temperature instrument on the market for your select.

a simple circuit is you use the revert diode as a sensor and amplified by a lm35, ad59etc. then 4430 or 8040etc to display or into mpu to display. code is very simple.

infrared can be done else this work. I can sell you both.

Indel can also help you with his equipment, contact him in this cr4

You need something like a Omron E5AK digital controller, but this one is used for industrial purposes, a similair device for medical puposes should suffice

CR4 is not here to help you do your homework. Frankly, if you were smart enough to get far enough through school to be working on a thesis project, this should be pretty easy for you - first to second year easy kind of stuff. Since more sophisticated stuff is already in use in hosptials and since there is already so much out there to do this kind of thing cheaply and easily, are you sure that this was accepted as a thesis project? This would have been somewhat questionable for acceptance as my freshman year electronics lab project. When I hear 'thesis project' I assume that one is working on their thesis for their Masters degree. For that it needs to be leading edge technology stuff. This sounds more like a lab project you have had dictated to you - ie homework. I would guess high school or first year college.

many times, theory is simple but prasctice is a complex issue. especially at tempereature measure as well as pressure etc.

many master degree sutdents do the task without release. there is no distinct line between post graduate and tech career school students. when they work at a practice job.

from this thread, he can find a products on the market without many money, but when he do it, he will have different ways, he can do rughly, he can do with data acquisition to get more flexibilities. if he want to remote control, he need to biold a transmitter, which is not every master degree student can do, if he is not familiar with redio.

I knolw many student who can draw very beautiful principle printing, but cannt build up their own circuit.
