High-Level Project Summary
The nation’s security is monitored and kept by the army, navy, and air force. There are many concerns regarding the safety of the soldier. Soldiers entering the enemy lines often lose their lives due to lack of connectivity, the army base station needs to know the location as well as the health status of all soldiers. So we have decided to build a project which will efficiently keep a check on the health status of the soldier, and his precise location to equip him with necessary medical treatments as soon as possible.

Detailed Project Description
Problem Statement:
Since the life of the soldiers is very precious in defending the country during a battle and as we know, during a battle there is always a chance of losing a soldier’s life due to improper or delayed support from the base station. Therefore, to ensure safety and adequate support in this situation, we plan to embed biomedical sensors that can be monitored by the base station in real-time, and thus provide proper assistance.
Solution:
Our proposed idea focuses on measuring all the health parameters of a soldier using various biomedical sensors. These vitals include heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature, and oxygen level in blood. It also includes environment temperature and gas detection sensor which warns the soldier of any harmful gas present in the environment and live feed through a camera mounted on the headgear of the soldier for real-time battlefield analysis.
We also plan to integrate an SOS button which would be used if a soldier requires immediate assistance. On pressing this button, all the details of the soldier’s current health and location will be sent to the base station via mail and text message.
Using the GPS data of units, the relative distance, height, and orientation between them will be calculated from the geometric relationships based on a series of formulas in Geographic Information Science (GIS). Using this technology, we will be doing the navigation between two soldiers. The data will be sent wirelessly by RF Transceivers.
