Description : | The leak sensor (based on an urine activated cell) embedded in diaper drives an alarm.
In physically active patients suffering from urinary incontinence, triggered vibrator strapped to the patient’s body alerts the patient.
For alerting babysitters / patient attendants, the leak sensor output drives a small buzzer or triggers an arduino (open source) having a
Bluetooth module to remotely activate an alarm on any android based phone having bluetooth connectivity.
The sensor is tagged to the inner / outer wall of the diaper depending on use.
It has the potential of being used as a wearable diagnostic device with suitable modification. |
