This post isn't intended to built a real AED (Automated External Defibrillator). AEDino is a dummy device for training.
Hello! I’m an ambulance technician, a BLSD and first aid instructor, a Red Cross operator and a future medical doctor. In the past, I was an aeronautical technician. Knowledge in medical field and hi-tech allowed me to design this cheapest full automated AED trainer based on Arduino board. I named this project AEDino in honor of famous Italian open-source hardware.
AED trainers aren’t so cheap (minimum 200-400$ for a full automated one). To solve this problem, I realised my own for less than 50$.
My first AEDino (ver.1.0) is based on an Arduino Uno Rev.3 board connected to LPM11162, a voice module designed by Italian LP elettronica.
My mission is to save lives, so I decided to share this project for free. Creative commons licence
. Make good (and non-commercial) use.

Any suggestion are welcome.
I'll post demonstrative videos and final project in a box as soon as possible.
I’m not native speaker, so excuse me for my imperfect English. Thank you!
