Abstract: In the present work, we have designed a health monitoring system based on Node MCU to monitor temperature, heart rate and oxygen saturation level (SpO2) signals, sensed by respective sensors. The necessary signal conditioning circuits have been designed in our laboratory using off-the shelf electronic components. A Data acquisition system has been designed using ESP 32 Node MCU. The designed system is a low-cost alternative to the commercially available USB controller based health monitoring systems. Firmware has been developed and deployed into the Node MCU using arduino IDE. The acquired data has been displayed on OLED display. The result shows maximum errors in the measured parameters within 2%. The designed system helps to achieve portability, high functionality and low cost which makes it an easy accessible tool for public, hospital, sports healthcare and other medical purposes.
