Trichy: The Defence Research and Development Organisation is working on a wearable health monitoring system for soldiers, said P S Pandian, director-technology, DRDO, Bengaluru, explaining the varied scope of bio medical research for students.
Speaking at the inauguration of the instrumentation and control engineering department at the National Institute of Technology here on Friday, Pandian said that as long as we perform normal activities without much strain, we may not be able to identify or detect any serious health problem.
Gone are the days when we think about ailments affecting people in their 40s or 50s; even 20-year-olds with no such family medical history get diabetes and high blood pressure. A device that will keep track of a person’s health condition and send alerts much before an ailment becomes serious will help avoid crises. Such gadgets gain significance as they can save the lives of soldiers, he said.
Medical devices technologies have the potential to transform the world of healthcare as the internet did to the world of commerce. In future, people will be able to turn on tele-health products in their homes with a healthcare provider, acquire medical data and information and manage their wellness programme, said Pandian.
However, regular calibration, maintenance, testing and certification of the medical devices were needed on a regular basis to obtain the correct prognosis and treatment. He urged students to come forward and work on interdisciplinary areas to develop prototypes.
Pandian said the bio medical industry had grown in a big way and instrumentation and control engineering had become an integral part of our life. Citing the example of automated flight operations which mostly work on instrumentation, Pandian said the progress of control and instrumentation engineering was rapid and had vast scope in the future.
N Sivakumaran, head, ICE department, said students of the department need to work more on prototype developments in healthcare technology. The growth of electronics, electrical, mechanical, materials, computers, information technology and communications had led to a large number of medical devices being employed for health care purposes.
Advancements in computing and communications allowed for practices such as “telemedicine,” a system utilising the internet by which patients could be diagnosed and often treated by physicians from far away.

विषय : डीआरडीओ में ताजमहलो का निर्माण – दूसरी क़िस्त
माननीय श्री प्रधानमंत्री जी एक तरफ हम समाचार पत्रो व् टी वी में पड़ते व् देखते है कि
” Modi austerity drive, no new cars for ministers, PMO to monitor spending by Marya Shakil, CNN-IBN Jun 25, 2014 at 08:57pm IST.
Modi, whose working style had garnered headlines in less than a month of assuming office, has also asked the ministers to take PMO’s approval for any purchases above Rs 1 lakh, according to sources.
वंही दूसरी ओर डीआरडीओ में ताजमहलो का निर्माण बदस्तूर जारी है I इसी सन्दर्भ में करप्शन इन डी आर डी ओ वेबसाइट को एक ईमेल द्वारा आज जानकारी मिली डी आर डी ओ द्वारा कि लॉन्ग व्हीलर आई लैंड में करोड़ों रूपए खर्च करके सिर्फ चार अदद कमरो का एक वी आई पी गेस्ट हाउस का निर्माण कार्य जा रहा है जिसकी खास बात यह है कि उसके हर कमरे का डिजाइन दुबई के एक सात सितारा लक्ज़री होटल के कमरो के अनुरूप किया जा रहा है I
यह निर्माण कार्य 100 मजदूरो द्वारा रात दिन लगातार कार्य जा रहा है और अगले सप्ताह इस गेस्ट हाउस का उद्घाटन होना है I यह सब निर्माण कर्नल सत्पथी के देख रेख में चल रहा है जो की लभग दस वर्षो से वंहा कार्यरत है इसके अलावा एक लक्ज़री बोट भी किंग्स एंड क्वीन कंपनी से खरीदी गयी है I क्या आपको लगता है की किंग्स एंड क्वीन की बोट में बैठ कर जाने से मिसाइल ज्यादा सटीक निशाना लगाएंगी I जंहा एक और सामान्य कर्मचारी सरकारी आवास समस्या से जूझ रहे है काफी लम्बी प्रतीक्षा सूची चल रही है वंही दूसरी ओर इन तथाकथित विज्ञानिको को विलासिता सूझ रही है I
आपसे नम्र निवेदन है कि शीघ्रता पूर्वक इन तथाकित वैज्ञानिको को देश के बहुमूल्य पैसो की बर्बादी से रोके सादगी का सन्देश दे क्योंकि कोई भी रिसर्च के लिए इन सब विलसिताओं की कोई भी आवश्कयता नहीं होती I सर जे सी बोसे ने कोई भी अविष्कार फाइव स्टार होटल में बैठकर नहीं किया था I
ऐसा न हो की आप अपने सांसदों व् मंत्रियो को सादगी का सन्देश देकर देश का लाखो रुपये बचाये और दूसरी ओर ये तथाकित वैज्ञानिक देश का करोड़ो रुपये बर्बाद कर दे I
धन्यवाद

He is going to inaugurate it next week. Each room is modelled as per designs from Dubai luxury hotel and more than 100 labourers are working day and night under Shri.Col. Satpathy who is the permanent Construction c.c.e. for the past ten years at the same sensitive and maney making post at Baleswar and Kolkata for the past 10 years. He has made similar seven star guest house in Kolkata also for his VVIP bosses to please them. A luxury boat(yact) is also being purchased for the Kings and queens of D.R.D.O. in Wheeler Island. Please do something to stop this. Like the fake degree scam, another big chunna to govt is by employees building houses in same station with H.B.A. and still staying in lab quarters by renting their house. Such like artificial scarcity of quarters is created and the waiting list is too long. moreover, taking this artificial shortage into account new quarters are being built by the construction department at exorbitant costs (much higher rates than C.P.W.D.)our department has become more of a construction dept. than R&D. That too contracts are issued only to some big fish contractors close to these corrupt officers without any transparency. When the whole country is following e-mail tendering, our dept. follows selective tendering. These construction engineers have even started taking projects from other than our dept. due to the huge kick backs provided in the over priced contracts. Please please do something otherwise we are going to be doomed. Wellwisher.
