Purpose

Develop a wearable IoT prototype that tracks soldiers' health, location, and orientation in real time, giving commanders situational awareness through a companion mobile app.

Description

The wearable unit pairs an ESP8266-based Arduino build with an MPU6050 motion sensor for orientation and a GPS module for position, streaming readings to a Firebase Realtime Database over Wi-Fi. An Android app reads that live data to display each soldier's vitals, location, and movement, so field status can be monitored remotely without radio check-ins.
