Temperature and Saturation level monitoring system using MQTT for COVID-19

In today's data driven world, seamless transfer of data is of paramount importance. The process of data assimilation and transfer demands high accuracy and security. During the outbreak of pandemics like COVID-19, continuous monitoring of temperature and saturation levels by the health officials is necessary. The information exchange between the patient and the health officials should be initiated instantaneously without any delay. For uninterrupted and accelerated data transfer, Message Queuing Telemetry Transport protocol can be deployed. MQTT has demonstrated good mobility, reliability, scalability, interoperability, power saving and security and hence can be considered as an alternative for wireless data transfer during situations wherein social distancing and self-isolation are mandatory.
