Project Proposal

Using body wearable MEMS sensor for analyzing human health behavior by measuring pulse rate

Features

Measurement of pulse rate using a MEMS biomedical pressure sensor

Connection to ATLAS node using wireless connectivity

A Biomedical application which can interpret the readings from the sensor

Sending of the information read from sensor to the emergency service or PDA of the house owner/doctor

MEMS and its benefits

MEMS: Micro-ElectroMechanical Systems Miniaturization of Electromechanical systems Improvement of performance Lower cost via batch fabrication Some physical phenomena are better at

micro/nano scale More reliable and accurate in real time

applications

Equipment required

MEMS pressure sensor like those from Freescale.

ATLAS node with Wi-Fi connectivity.
