Raspberry Pi 5 Nursing Alert System Kit - Monitor Patient Bed Pressure, Sound & Temperature

Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.

Transform a Raspberry Pi 5 into a real-time nursing alert device that senses bed exit, unusual noise, and elevated body temperature. Designed for under-staffed wards, home care, or student prototyping, this kit delivers a working prototype you can test on a mannequin or actual bed setup within a day.

What You'll Build

You'll assemble a compact monitoring panel that reads force-sensitive resistor strips under a mattress, a high-sensitivity microphone, and a waterproof DS18B20 temperature probe. When the system detects a patient leaving the bed, a sudden sound (a cry, a fall), or a temperature spike above a set threshold, it logs the event and can trigger a visual/audible alert at a central nurse station. The data is stored on a fast NVMe SSD for later trend analysis.

What You'll Learn

• Calibrate FSR 402 sensors to distinguish between patient restlessness and complete bed exit
• Capture and process ambient sound with a MAX9814 electret microphone and automatic gain control
• Interface a DS18B20 one-wire temperature sensor with Python on Raspberry Pi OS
• Set up an NVMe SSD via the Pi 5 M.2 HAT+ for low-latency data logging
