Submitted on: Tuesday 10th March 2015
The next-generation personal health systems should enable continuous and non-invasive monitoring of patients. The many vital signs obtained from monitoring will be able to provide early diagnosis of diseases, improving prevention, as well as personalization and quality of care. The aim of the project is to build a sensor platform using commercially available sensors which are able to monitor multiple (>10) vital signs of a person. The group of students are expected to have very good understanding of analogue circuits and familiar with the programming of microcontrollers.
Below is an incomplete list of what can be measured
1. Body Temperature
2. Breathing rate
3. Heart rate
4. Oxygen in blood, haemoglobin
5. Arterial pressure
6. Sweating
7. Dehydration
8. Skin conductance
9. Substance secreted from the skin
10. Substance inside the breath, such as NO and CO
11. Electrocardiogram (ECG)
12. Body motion
