“…e optical light sensor is used to check light condition in the patient room, on the basis of which light can be controlled (ON/OFF). e system is instigated using BeagleBone Black development board and GSM module, and the patient data are sent to the cloud over which the doctor can screen the parameters anywhere using a web page or smart phone application [17]. e study proposed a method using different sensors like temperature and heartbeat oxygen level sensor to monitor patient body temperature and heart rate by connecting to the ARM controller.…”

The main symptoms of COVID-19 are high temperature, throat infection, and irregular heartbeat. An integrated wearable device has been presented in this paper for the measurement of temperature and heartbeat in real time using different sensors and NodeMCU ESP8266. For temperature, the DHT11 sensor is used and, for heartbeat, the pulse sensor is used. After reading the data from the sensors processed by NodeMCU ESP8266, it is sent to the firebase database using wireless connection (Wi-Fi module). From the database, the data are displayed in an android application. On the basis of certain conditions of the data, the user as well as the administrator is notified regarding the user’s current health. For the social distancing, an ultrasonic sensor is used. The sensor will warn the user, if he/she is in close contact with someone within a specified distance. The user’s current location is also tracked using the location services of android. A module named COVID-meter, based on the disease.sh-Open Disease Data API, was also included in the research for reading of real-time data of different countries related to COVID-19 like total cases, total deaths, total recovered patients, and so on. The proposed device can be used in both populated and rural areas, but in rural areas it will be much more important because people are unable to reach a doctor on time; thus, they can check their health conditions remotely using the proposed device.

Due to the global pandemic of COVID-19, there is an urgent need to utilize existing technologies to their full potential. Internet of things (IoT) is regarded as one of the most trending technologies with a great potential in fighting against the coronavirus outbreak. In this study, we examine the current status of IoT applications related to COVID-19, identify their deployment and operational challenges, and suggest possible opportunities to further contain the pandemic. Furthermore, we perform analysis by examining the IoT implementation in which internal and external factors are discussed. We suggest by presenting results that lightweight security algorithms, blockchain-based solutions for enabling end-to-end security and privacy, and 5G for IoT devices to tackle the bandwidth issues for scalable IoT networks are few of the solutions in containing the COVID-19.
