Modular Sensors System Devicefor Physiological Monitoring Characterization Presentation Part A - Spring 2011 Performed by: OhadGadassi Ady Krieger Instructor: Boaz Mizrachi Duration: 2 Semesters
Introduction • What are the benefits of Physiological Monitoring? • Objective • Quantitative • Measurable • Reliable • Continuous
Introduction • What do we need it for? • eHealth systems • Marketing • Smart Home (Medical home, Elderly people) • Sports, Extreme, Backpacking (Trekking) • Training • Security, Military
Introduction • What do we measure? • Heart Rate (Pulse) • Sweat (Skin resistance) • Muscle Activity • Skin Temperature • Respiration Rate • Blood Pressure • Etc..
Project’s Requirements • Portable • Miniature- compact, light • Nonobstructive, noninvasive • Wireless • Modularity, Multiple uses • Inexpensive • User friendly • Communicate with Smart Phone • Low power • Long battery life
Project’s Goals • Designing the system and appropriate packaging, resulting in a comfortable, friendly, portable and inexpensive modular sensors system device. • Creating a unique set of software for Smart Phone and the MSSD, which enables creating a database and storing it for the further inspection.
Project’s Basic Concept User MSSD Interface User Smart Phone Interface MSSD Smart Phone Interface
TechnicalRequirements • Wireless portable system worn on the desirable measurement area. • Ability to simply replace different sensors. • Recognition of maximum 3 sensor channels simultaneously. • Alert for ON-OFF mode, “low-battery” state and BT connection success. • Physical dimensions of the MSSD is small and nonobstructive. • Storing the data describing each measurement in the Smart Phone memory by BT for performing extended data processing and better tracking. • Low-power rechargeable battery.
