Abstract - There are 16 million babies are born too early
In incubator microprocessor is use for the controller temperature, humidity and gas concentration. Fan is provided to circulate air and distribute heat in incubator. In incubator manual set temperature and humidity used. Temperature, humidity and gas level displays, high and low temperature and gas indicators and low water indicator.
every year. The rate of preterm birth range from 6%-20% of babies born across 184 countries according to WHO. Almost 4 million children die each year due to preterm birth. In the first month, one million die on the first day low birth weight (LBW) is the greatest risk of the new born babies. The countries with the greatest numbers of preterm births are in India-35,19,100; China- 11,72,300,Pakistan- 7,48,100,U.S5,17,400 and Brazil-2,79,300.The microcontroller based baby incubator help to all peoples. Cost of this project is very low. So, everyone which belongs to economical backward also use this. Today baby incubator used in all big hospital. This project not only used for monitoring and controlling the temperature but also provide of advantages such as controlling humidity and monitoring the heart beat and respiration.

The basic operation of the circuit is monitoring the temperature and humidity within the incubator shell. The temperature sensor will detect the temperature and send the single to the microprocessor for further action. If the temperature level is high, then the microprocessor will send single to the temperature injector to open the valve. Some time microprocessor send single to outlet the air flow in incubator. In incubator the temperature level too low, the microprocessor send the single to the fan, and fan will be stopped. High and low temperatures level detection, the red color light blink and the warning by the alarm system.
1. INTRODUCTION This project is design to control the temperature and humidity. It is use to control the temperature and humidity of a small environment in a baby incubator. A baby incubator system is use for the Preterm birth babies, new born babies and sick babies. It provides a safe and clean environment, with fresh air, clean and sterile ambient condition for the babies. In baby incubator provide a homogeneous and stable temperature, a relative humidity level, heart beat and repatriation sense and concentration that is need especially for intensive care of the preterm baby and full term baby. Most of the baby incubator’s are made up of using microprocessors.
1.1 Incubator Heating System For this an automatic incubator comprises a chamber surrounded by a water jacket and insulation with temperature and gas level sensors, a gas injection and separate water jacket and air heaters.
