Wireless Activity Monitor[WAM]
Background
Blood Pressure Force of Blood against blood vessels Measured with inflatable cuff Measure Systolic and Diastolic pressure
Heart Rate Number of heart beats per minute Measured audibly or electrically Count heart beats per minute
Electrocardiograph (EKG) Monitors heart activity Uses skin electrodes
Problem Statement
Take heart rate readingsTake blood pressure readingsProcess readings onboard the deviceTransmit wirelessly to a local PCPresent data in an intuitive GUIDesign website

Implementation
Wrist MountedCompact2 in 1 unit
Blood pressure Heart rate
Wireless data transmission Determine wireless standard to be used
Use requires minimal instruction
Testing
Data will be acquired from multiple subjectsThis data will be compared to control data
obtained by clinical devicesRange and power consumption testsStudy of human factors associated with final
designCritique of GUI from occupational therapists
(students and faculty)
Budget
Wrist mounted blood pressure monitor $250(2)
Wireless chipset $70
Microcontroller for data acquisition and processing $50
Circuit components $100
Cost approximation $470
Goals
Wireless transmission Low Power Range
