In a bid to help with COVID-19 containment efforts, AIIMS, Nagpur, has developed a smart wrist band. The device, designed and developed with the help of teams at IIT Jodhpur and IIIT Nagpur, works without a smartphone and helps ensure effective monitoring and tracking of confirmed and suspected COVID-19 patients. With real-time vital monitoring, the band can alert the wearer as soon as something goes off the charts.
