This research has developed a heat stroke warning system prototype for athletes utilizing the following sensors: DHT22, GY-906-BAA MLX90614, MAX30102. The device calculates the heat stroke risk and notifies users. The data is recorded, stored, displayed on a free-access website which graphs body temperature, ambient temperature, humidity, heart rate and heat stroke risk, and provides notifications for athletes engaged in outdoor activities. The researchers recorded sensors data (n = 1) for two sessions (12 min/session) in a closed room, at the sixth-minute marker, with an air conditioner activated to observe the changes observed by the sensors. For accuracy, the researchers employed Criterion-Related Validity, comparing sensor against standard equipment measurement. For reliability, we utilized Test-Retest Reliability, comparing sensor data from the first and second measurements. Accuracy and reliability were evaluated using the Pearson Correlation Coefficient, with significance set at p < 0.01. The DHT22 sensor demonstrates very high accuracy (r = 0.923) in ambient temperature and (r = 0.774) humidity measurements. It showed no significant reliability (r = 0.489) in temperature and (r = 0.185) humidity measurements. The GY-906-BAA MLX90614 sensor exhibited very high accuracy (r = 0.923) and reliability (r = 0.866) in body temperature measurements. The MAX30102 sensor lacked significant accuracy (r = 0.179) and reliability (r = 0.171) in heart rate measurements. The development of accuracy and reliability of sensors are important for preventing heat stroke in future applications.
