A Wearable EEG-Based Control Network and Emergency Medical Assistance System

This paper presented the design of a wearable EEG-based control network and emergency medical assistance system which works and is now under test by volunteers. The system can detect the user's blink control signal, heart rates and brain signal, etc. A new scheme to control the device for disabilities was proposed in the paper. A DSP was used to calculate and process these data which can also send messages of the patients to the control center and make emergency calls to the nearest hospital for the patients, especially for patients which suffered from epilepsy and disabilities. The proposed system was proved to be practical and helpful in assisting the injured, elderly and disabled groups.
