Abstract

Abstract Alzheimer is a neurological degenerative disease that steadily and gradually progresses. This disease is incurable at present and those who suffer from it have the hesitation to travel beyond their homes in comparison to normal people. The main aim of this paper is to offer a continuous mechanism that enhances the Alzheimer patient’s quality of life as well as that of their caregivers. Proposed work is based on the Internet of things (IoT) based sensors data that figure out different parameters of the patient body like temperature, blood pressure, striding action, striding speed, and so on. All these sensory data will be obtained with the help of the Atmega Microcontroller. All the collected data are then sent to the cloud server with the help of parallel communication for data analysis. The desired parameter of the patient is retrieved which will help in providing real time support to the patients.
