Abstract—As the financial cost of electronics is constantly decreasing and new electronic modules are being introduced to the market, the development of many healthcare applications becomes easier, cheaper and more prospects are created for various healthcare related fields. Some of these fields are the pre-hospital care and the telemedicine, which have a lot to contribute to modern healthcare provision. The purpose of this paper is to present the development of an electronic biomedical device that will measure and send a number of biosignals, while at the same time being lightweight enough to be transferred by an unmanned air vehicle to achieve a better pre-hospital service in case of urgent care situations. The system was built trying to keep the total cost on a low level. Finally, some measurements were taken to check the device’s proper functionality and conclusions were drawn.
