Smart Compression Bandage Kit with Arduino Nano + LED
Smart Compression Bandage with Arduino Nano: Monitor Compression Pressure for Physiotherapy
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
Compression therapy demands precise, even pressure to promote healing and prevent complications, yet physiotherapists often rely on subjective feel. With this kit, you build a bandage that integrates three force-sensitive resistors to continuously map pressure distribution, then alerts the caregiver when it drifts outside the therapeutic window — bringing data-driven insight to every treatment session.
What You'll Build
You’ll assemble a wearable compression bandage equipped with an Arduino Nano, an OLED screen, and an active buzzer. Three FSR 402 sensors placed at key points measure pressure in real time, and the system logs readings with a DS3231 real-time clock for later review. Build it once, then use it to demonstrate closed-loop health monitoring for physiotherapy, rehabilitation, or smart wearables projects.
What You'll Learn
- Interfacing multiple analog force sensors with Arduino Nano
- Calibrating FSRs to measure pressure in newtons or mmHg
- Displaying real-time sensor data on an OLED screen
- Implementing threshold-based alerts for wearable medical devices

Who This Kit Is For
B.Tech ECE/EEE and biomedical engineering students building capstone projects, Smart India Hackathon teams prototyping remote patient monitoring, ATL mentors demonstrating wearable sensors, and physiotherapy researchers from IIT/NIT/VIT/BITS exploring objective compression feedback will find this kit a ready-to-code platform that shortcuts the parts hunt and validation phase.
Built and Backed by Compoden
Every Compoden kit ships with an AI build companion trained on this exact project — accessible via a QR code on the box, with WhatsApp and email backup. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. If a part fails because of a manufacturing defect, replace it free within 7 days.
What if I get stuck during the build?
Scan the QR code to talk to our AI build companion instantly; it’s trained on this kit’s exact wiring and code. You can also send us a WhatsApp message for human support.
Can the bandage measure pressure in medical units like mmHg?
Yes. After calibrating each FSR 402 with known weights, our guide shows you how to convert the analog readings into mmHg, making your data ready for clinical use.
How do I power the bandage for extended physiotherapy sessions?
The included 400mAh LiPo battery powers the system for about 3 hours of continuous monitoring. The TP4056 charging module lets you recharge easily via USB.
Is this kit suitable for my B.Tech final year project?
Absolutely. The real-time pressure logging, threshold alerts, and wearable form factor align with health monitoring project requirements, and you get full documentation for your report.
Three FSR sensors in bandage measure compression pressure distribution. Alerts physiotherapist when pressure deviates from target.
