Abstract
This system uses Internet of Things sensors to collect health information like heart rate how much a person moves and the air quality around them. This information is then sent to a computer. Analyzed to see how a persons health is changing over time. By looking at this information in a way and using intelligent methods the system can find unusual changes in a persons health and send them a message or give them some advice. This helps people take care of themselves before they get really sick which reduces the chance of having health problems.
The system is made to be simple and not too expensive so it is easy to use and good for people who live in cities and also for people who do not have a lot of access to healthcare. Keeping track of health all the time helps people know more about their health and take care of themselves. It also helps doctors make better decisions.
The preventive healthcare system is a thing because it helps people stay healthy and it shows how Internet of Things solutions can make it easier for people to take care of their health. This project is also related to Sustainable Development Goal 3 which is about having good health and well-being by promoting preventive healthcare and using Internet of Things technology to make health monitoring better.
Keywords: Good Health and Well-Being (SDG 3), Health Monitoring System, Internet of Things (IoT), Preventive Healthcare, Real-Time Data Analysis, Smart Healthcare Systems.
