Arduino Body Temperature Monitoring System

This document outlines the details of the Arduino Body Temperature Monitoring System project, including its hardware and software requirements, features, system design, and usage instructions.

Features

• Body Temperature Measurement: Measures the temperature using the GY-906 infrared temperature sensor.
• Real-time Data Display: Displays temperature readings on an LCD screen.
• Accurate Temperature Detection: Ensures precise temperature readings.
• Alert System: Activates a buzzer alarm when the temperature exceeds a predefined threshold.
• System Health Monitoring: Monitors the functionality of components in real-time.

Requirements

Hardware

• Microcontroller: Arduino Uno.
• Temperature Sensor: GY-906 for accurate infrared temperature readings.
• Buzzer: Provides an audible alert for high-temperature warnings.

System Design

Modules

1. Measurement Module:

   • Uses the GY-906 infrared sensor to measure body and ambient temperature.
   • Reads temperature data continuously for real-time monitoring.

2. Display Module:

   • Shows the temperature readings on an LCD screen or through the Arduino serial monitor.

3. Alert Module:

   • Activates the buzzer when the temperature exceeds a specified threshold, ensuring timely notifications for high-temperature conditions.

Future Enhancements
