Portable ECG Monitoring System using Lilypad And Mobile Platform-PandaBoard

New wireless system for biomedical purposes gives new possibilities for monitoring of essential function in human being. Wearable biomedical sensors will give the patient the freedom to be capable of moving readily and still be under continuously monitoring regularity of heartbeats identify any damage to the heart and devices used to regulate the heart and thereby to better quality of patient care. This paper describes a new concept for wireless and portable electrocardiogram (ECG) sensor transmitting signals to a monitoring station at the remote location within specific range, and this concept is intended for monitoring people with impairments in their cardiac activity. The proposed work helps to overcome this problem. With the advancement in Arduino and mobile technology, it is possible to design a portable ECG device which capture ECG of patient and monitor it on mobile platform. This report goes over low power Arduino, mobile platform Panda board and Zigbee technology to couple ECG over mobile board.
