7. ESP32 Source Code
#include <WiFi.h>
#include <HTTPClient.h>
const char* ssid = "YOUR_WIFI";
const char* password = "YOUR_PASSWORD";
String apiKey = "THINGSPEAK_API_KEY";
void setup()
{
Serial.begin(115200);
WiFi.begin(ssid,password);
while(WiFi.status()!=WL_CONNECTED)
{
delay(1000);
}
}
void loop()
{
float temp = 36.5;
int heartRate = 78;
int spo2 = 98;
if(WiFi.status()==WL_CONNECTED)
{
HTTPClient http;
String url =
"https://api.thingspeak.com/update?api_key="
+ apiKey +
"&field1="+String(temp)+
"&field2="+String(heartRate)+
"&field3="+String(spo2);
http.begin(url);
http.GET();
http.end();
}
delay(15000);
}
8. ThingSpeak Setup
- Create ThingSpeak account.
- Create new channel.
- Add fields:
- Temperature
- Heart Rate
- SpO2
- Save Channel.
- Copy Write API Key.
- Paste into ESP32 code.
9. Telegram Bot Setup
Step 1
Open Telegram and search BotFather.
Step 2
Create new bot using /newbot command.
Step 3
Copy generated Bot Token.
Step 4
Get Chat ID.
Step 5
Use token in n8n Telegram node.
10. Google Sheets Integration

{
"name":"Google Sheets",
"type":"n8n-nodes-base.googleSheets"
},
{
"name":"Telegram",
"type":"n8n-nodes-base.telegram"
}
]
}
13. AI Prediction Logic
Input Parameters
- Temperature
- Heart Rate
- SpO2
- Historical Trends
Prediction Rules
IF Temperature > 38°C AND Heart Rate > 110 Risk = HIGH IF SpO2 < 92% Risk = CRITICAL ELSE Risk = NORMAL
14. Power Consumption Prediction
AI calculates average sensor power usage and predicts battery life.
Battery Capacity = 2000mAh Average Current = 120mA Battery Life = 2000 / 120 = 16.6 Hours
15. Voice Notification Automation
n8n converts alert text into speech.
Example Message
Warning! Patient Heart Rate High. Current Heart Rate: 125 BPM Please Check Immediately.
Automation Flow
AI Alert | Text To Speech | Telegram Voice Message | Doctor / Caretaker
16. Alert Conditions
| Parameter | Condition | Alert |
|---|---|---|
| Temperature | > 38°C | High Fever |
| Heart Rate | > 110 BPM | Tachycardia |
| SpO2 | < 92% | Emergency |
