The study targets to decrease the cases of high blood pressure that can lead to several complications such as stroke.

METHODS

August 2017, the building of the robot was started. Gathering of information and data regarding the robot followed by the research design and layout were done using Lego Digital Designer. The programs installed at the robot were created using the Lego Mindstorms NXTV.2.0. To test the functionality of the robot, the researchers tested several students. These were done for the assurance of the elements as essential parts of the robot in getting accuracy on the body's blood pressure. This study was conducted at Rosario National High School, P. Burgos St. Sapa 2, Rosario, Cavite. S.Y 2018-2019.

RESULTS

This endeavor constituted of LEGO robot intended to perform a precise function as a robot taking blood pressure. The robot highlights a very convoluted draft and purpose nevertheless the study was a major success as it achieved its allocated objective. After all the steps the researchers finalized and concluded that BloodyBot as it performed its task because of the appropriate design and program. It helps to monitor blood pressure. The researchers also finish all the requirements needed.

DISCUSSIONS

As a conclusion, the testing proves that the BloodyBot helps the people to measure blood pressure and capable to prevent the diseases related to high blood pressure. It can perform its task properly as the program runs and continuously measures one's body blood pressure.
