Abstract: CASING, MARNELIE B. and MEDINA, CLAUDINE L. Development of GSM Based Heart Rate Monitoring Device. Undergraduate Design Project. Bachelor of Science in Electronics and Communications Engineering. Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite. April 2015. Adviser: Engr. Michael T. Costa. The study was conducted from November 2014 to January 2015 at Indang, Imus and Sampaloc, Manila to develop and design a Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM) based Heart Rate Monitoring Device. Specifically, it aimed to: 1. design and construct the Arduino based circuit for data taken mechanism of the heart rate monitoring system; 2. develop the software for the heart rate monitor system; 3. develop system for the GSM module using C Programming Language; 4. interface the Arduino based circuit to the heart rate monitoring setup; 5. test and evaluate the performance of the system in terms of accuracy of the heart rate monitoring system, time it takes for the heart rate monitoring device to send message and time it takes for the mobile phone to receive the message; and 6. conduct a cost analysis for the study. The system used C / C Programming Language to control and manipulate the microcontroller unit. The Arduino at Mega 328 microcontroller was used because it satisfies the requirements of the design. Generally, its ports were used to interface input and output devices such as the contact electrodes, GSM module, and Bluetooth module. The design project was tested and evaluated through user-acceptance and technical evaluation at Engineering Science (ES) building, Cavite State University (CvSU), Indang, Cavite, Sampaloc, Manila and Imus, Cavite. For user-acceptance, 30 participants tested and evaluated the heart rate monitoring device whereas for technical evaluation measurements were made and gathered by the researchers to determine the effectiveness and efficiency of the design project. Paired T-test was used to analyze the gathered data and results proved that the overall performance of the system is excellent. It was concluded based on the statistical results that the performance of the device is almost equivalent to commercially available heart rate monitoring device given that it has added features such as the messaging capability using GSM module to send results or alarm messages. For future researchers, it is recommended that additional features for the system such as using non-contact electrodes for ease of usage, additional number of electrodes for a more precise and accurate result, addition of Global Positioning System (GPS) to identify the location of the user in case irregularities happened, be made. The total cost of the design project was P 7,503.
