Innovative Approaches in Electromedical Education: Designing Low Cost X-ray Stationary Simulations Using Camera from Concept to Implementation

Abstract

In response to the pressing need for vocational students to acquire the requisite capacity and competence for gainful employment, this project addresses the demand for educational materials in vocational studies, particularly in the electromedical field. Focusing on radiology courses utilizing the X-ray Stationary tool as a modality, the project aims to enhance the competency of graduates. The X-ray Stationary tool, a medical imaging device utilizing X-rays for patient diagnosis, employs light beams from LEDs, and its system incorporates a camera to record the exposed region. The simulation utilizes the Arduino Uno as the controller, employing low-cost effective and readily available components, making it suitable for college-level students. This endeavor seeks to bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical skills, providing students with a comprehensive learning experience in the realm of electromedical education.
