Create an equipment to be used in everyday’s life for a medical purpose

Obtain the basic idea from “Wireless Heart Attack Detector with GPS” of Fall 2004

Most heart attack results from coronary artery disease (the restriction of blood flow to the heart) and it causes instant death of person


Objective


Goals of Design:
-The wireless heart attack detector captures abnormal heart beat signals.
-The alert system on the walking stick warns the user to realize his health condition.

Benefits:

Electrocardiogram (ECG) signal transmitted wirelessly from the wrist to the
main unit on the stick. This avoids the inconvenience of the attachment of the stick to the wrists.
