Electrical Engineering Electroencephalography Bluetooth Microcontroller Electroencephalography (EEG) is the measurement of electrical activity that takes place in the brain. EEGand the study of the waveforms thereby acquired are useful in the clinical and medical range. In additionto this, commercial applications and electronics are ever approaching the use of such technology as well.Moving forward in time, these technologies (as all technologies in general) are moving more towardsbecoming solutions composed entirely of embedded technology. As the technologies get smaller andmore complex, the capabilities of current medical solutions are continually improving. The workpresented in this thesis shows how embedded technologies can interface to completely comprise an entireEEG system.Among all things, this design is modular and wireless. This novel design concept provides ways to takean existing solution and improve its portability and adaptability, without compromising the accuracy ofthe system as a whole.The design itself is based on three main components: an Analog Front End, a 16-bit Microcontroller, anda Bluetooth Transceiver. This work will show that by interfacing these three main embedded devices, theresults of a proven clinical EEG system can be replicated. Additionally, this work will show that thisdesign can exceed in value the existing system due to its vast superiority in portability and adaptability. 2014-10-13 English text University of Cincinnati / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ucin1406821524 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ucin1406821524 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: some rights reserved.
