Guards permanently secure military dependences. However, the availability of personnel requires ensuring their cardiac health and location. To know, the current status of the guards are required to have updated health status data. In this context, the design, hardware, and software architecture of a device using the LoRa protocol are presented. The system monitors, controls, and registers the personnel's position, and using a button allows requesting help in the case is required. The measured statistics validate if every guard has an appropriate heart rate, is in the assigned position, and requires collaboration. The results at the prototype level are satisfactory. Tests have been carried out in the Chilean Air Force. The project is in the process of validation by the responsible entities.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
