contents <p>This report presents the design of a Smart Home Fetal Monitoring System intended as a lowcost engineering prototype for structured at-home observation during pregnancy. The proposed<br>system combines an abdominal wearable belt, IMU and pressure or piezoelectric sensors, an<br>ESP32 controller, BLE or Wi-Fi communication, signal processing, baseline comparison, and<br>a mobile application for session control, visualization, history tracking, alerts, and PDF report<br>export. The project addresses the gap between periodic clinical checks and subjective manual<br>kick counting by proposing a repeatable monitoring workflow that can record movementrelated indicators and summarize them in a doctor-readable form. The prototype is not presented<br>as a diagnostic medical device and does not replace CTG, ultrasound, Doppler examination,<br>emergency care, or medical interpretation by qualified healthcare professionals. Its role is<br>limited to data collection, signal quality assessment, feature extraction, trend observation, and<br>reporting. The expected engineering results are derived from previous studies in the literature.<br>Recent wearable fetal movement systems reported movement-detection performance around<br>90% sensitivity, 87.46% precision, and 88.56% F1-score in an IoT-enabled IMU-based design,<br>while another wearable system reported an average recognition and correct rate of 89.74%.<br>Other works demonstrated the feasibility of acoustic, flexible, and multi-sensor pregnancy<br>monitoring platforms, but also confirmed persistent limitations related to motion artifacts, small<br>datasets, sensor placement repeatability, false alarms, battery life, and clinical validation.
