Engineering Projects/BioVest

Project BioVest

This project started at the conceive phase in fall 2013; a group of students conceived of a "biovest" to monitor the health of the person wearing the device.

Project Goal: Create a prototype "vest," instrumented with multiple sensors, that will monitor/record/display the vital signs of the wearer. See the conceive report below for detailed requirements.

• 
  Sensor locations for ECG
• 
  Chest strap heart rate monitor

Conceive

In fall 2013, students completed the "conceive" phase of this project. They established the basic concept for the design, along with the key design goals/requirements. The conception is documented in this report.

Design

As of spring 2014, students are actively working on the design phase of this project. The design documentation will be posted here when completed.
