Frugal Digital developed Clock Sense, a monitor converted from an old alarm clock which can easily assess temperature, pressure, pulse, oxygen saturation, respiration rate, blood sugar. It is cheap to produce and can be assembled from components which are easy to find across India. The indicator provides simple information: red means the patient should be taken to the hospital immediately, yellow indicates that an appointment with a doctor should be made, green indicates good health.
Frugal Digital is a research group that focuses on researching methods and practices around creating digital solutions in low resource settings like that of developing economies.
