Abstract
LoRa is a proprietary technology developed by Cycleo SAS and it was acquired by Semtech in 2012. LoRa utilizes the license-free ISM band and by leveraging on LoRa's low power and long-distance transmission platform, it connects healthcare personnel in remote areas with medical specialist in urban areas in real time. A medical personal or a traditional midwife can consult medical specialist in the city regarding on a specific symptom or disease. We developed a device that is capable to send out request for emergency service, an e-stock management system and there is a medical symptom database built into it. The device is comprised of 2 Raspberry Pi model B, 7-inch touch screen and 2 Dragino LoRa/GPS shields operating at 915Mhz. A Graphical User Interface (GUI) was designed as a platform to connect the two users. We also evaluated the feasibility and practicality of this long-range transmission platform.
