Abstract—This study focus for a driver in day care, real-time ECG monitoring is required, because symptoms of cardiac arrhythmia and hypoxia can occur unexpectedly. To prevent any cardiovascular problems unknown to a driver and to enhance care service and quality, in this system, the front-end sensor extracts the measured physiological signals from a driver’s hand in the vehicle, subsequently wirelessly transmitting these signals to the Android system for processing. This research proposes a continue ECG monitoring system for transmitting ECG signals to Android mobile phones or tablets through Bluetooth transmission in vehicles. These signals are then uploaded to a cloud database, enabling health care physicians and nurses to instantly monitor and access ECG data. The system can effectively reduce the rate of accidents caused by drivers.
Index Terms—ECG, driver behavior, real-time, Android, cloud database.
