Electro-Encephalogram Signal Acquisition, Analysis and Alert System for Epilepsy

Aim of this project is to develop rescue system for the person suffering from epilepsy neurological disorder by measuring the EEG of the person. The Electro-encephalogram(EEG) is the brain signal containing valuable information of normal or epileptic state of the brain. During the event of epilepsy, the neurological activity of the brain is higher thereby increasing the surface potential. These potentials are measured continuously and analyzed with abnormal EEG of epilepsy by having the threshold value of the potential. An alarming message is sent to doctor or patient�s relative using GSM(Global system for Mobile Communication) when the person is found abnormal. The location of the patient is determined using GPS(Global Positioning System) for the rescue operation.
