Abstract

This paper aims to purpose an open, low-cost alternative to the existing health monitoring devices, without compromising key aspects such as accuracy, portability or communication features. Initial testing showed that it is possible to adapt the same features of a dedicated device, while keeping the versatility of a dedicated prototyping platform. Furthermore, the advantages introduced by the third generation LEGO EV3 platform will improve the results, especially for time sensitive measurements like EKG or NIBP.
