With new innovative healthcare devices being integrated into the professional healthcare environment every year, the methods that doctors use to monitor patient’s vitals are continuously changing. As medical equipment moves towards preventative healthcare the need for smaller and portable handheld devices increases. The WWECG will provide the solution for these needs by reducing size and increasing accuracy with low power consumption communications and a mix of analog and digital processing.
Advances in fabrication of chip size will be our biggest advantage in developing a smaller more compact diagnostic device than we have seen in the market. Our design will take the analog signal from the body and convert it into digital data to be sent wirelessly over Bluetooth to be processed by an external processing unit. This processing unit will then send that processed data wirelessly over Bluetooth to an Android based mobile app that can be accessed through any Android device. The app will provide the user with an easily accessible display of their ECG signal.
