Hardware and software development for the digitalization of a treatment process
Goal: Integration of sensors into a physiotherapist's couch to record weight shifts during a treatment process. Evaluation and visualization of the data in real time.
Method:
-
Design and development of electrical hardware (sensors)
-
Mechanical design of the sensor modules and prototype development with a 3D printer
-
Connection of the developed sensors to a microcontroller using a bus system
-
Development of software with Python and C/C++ under Embedded Linux for the microcontroller
-
Development of software for data acquisition and evaluation of sensor data in the millisecond range
-
Development of a web interface to operate the system as well as display and evaluate the data for the customer
-
Communication of the web interface with the microcontroller based on a residual interface
