A touchscreen display (108) operatively coupled to the hardware processor (106) serves as a sole user interface. The plurality of biometric sensors (112) are permanently integrated within the unified housing (102) without requiring external peripheral devices, wireless pairing procedures, or cable connections, enabling zero-setup operation by field health workers during household visits."
