ModAu: Modernized Auscultation

This paper presents a novel wireless digital stetho-scope design that integrates multiple sensing modalities into a compact form factor. The proposed stethoscope aims to enhance the auscultation data quality by capturing high-quality audio and precise vibration data for improved diagnosis and monitoring of respiratory and cardiac conditions. To enable wireless connectivity, the auscultation device incorporates the latest Bluetooth technology, enabling realtime transmission of auscultation data to a compatible device, such as a smartphone or computer. This allows future healthcare professionals to visualize and analyze the captured data using dedicated software, providing enhanced visualization tools, signal processing algorithms, and machine learning techniques for accurate interpretation and diagnosis. The compact form factor and low-cost design of the stethoscope, makes it suitable for various medical applications, including remote healthcare and long term monitoring.
