📖 Project Overview

The Tactical Military Wearable Health Analysis System is a wearable embedded solution designed for military personnel operating in the field.
It collects and analyzes physiological and environmental data to increase decision-making speed, reduce operational risks, and support mission continuity.

The system measures and interprets:

  • Pulse and oxygen saturation (SpO₂)
  • Body and ambient temperature
  • Posture and fall status
  • Air quality indicators (gas detection)

In critical situations, the system generates local vibration alerts and remote notifications to command units.
Data visualization can be performed on:

  • Laptop dashboard
  • Nextion HMI
  • TFT screen
    (depending on mission requirements)

⚙️ System Architecture

Built around an STM32 microcontroller, the system emphasizes low power consumption, robust communication, and modularity.

Core Modules

Module Description
Sensor Reading Collects vital and environmental data
Data Evaluation Processes and interprets sensor input
Alerting Generates vibration and emergency alerts
Communication Uses UART, SPI, I²C, or LoRa based on scenario
Power Management Controls energy usage and display activation

Each module operates independently, ensuring scalability and reliability.


🧠 Key Features

  • Silent vibration alerts for unobtrusive feedback
  • Emergency button for instant distress signaling
  • Simple display mode for essential data only
  • Adaptive sampling depending on mission length
  • Battery life optimization with conditional screen activation
  • Flexible communication protocols: UART / SPI / I²C / LoRa
  • Fault protection and error handling

🔋 Power Optimization

To maximize operational endurance:

  • Display activates only when necessary
  • Duty cycles dynamically adjust based on mission profiles
  • Regular field trials evaluate:
    • False alarm rates
    • Alert delays
    • Battery performance
  • Thresholds and sampling periods are fine-tuned based on test data

🧩 Development & Collaboration

All development is managed via GitHub, ensuring transparent collaboration and version tracking.

Repository contents include:

  • Source code and libraries
  • Circuit and flow diagrams
  • Weekly progress reports and test notes
  • Task tracking via Issues / Projects
  • Change logs for version history
  • Presentation materials and visuals
