Set-Top Box for Home-based Delivery of Health Care
Submitted: April, 2010

Our research centers on the use of multi-point videoconferencing, using small set-top boxes (the DocBox) which are placed in patient's homes. These units, about the size of a paperback book, connect to a home television and to a broadband internet connection. Our videoconferencing unit requires little or no interaction from the patient, and is controlled centrally by the health care or wellness provider.

Low Cost Wearable Monitoring System(Sensors,Microcontroller,Mobile/Cellular Phone)
Submitted: April, 2010

The project is related to an emerging area of applied research called “wearable computing”. Our task in this project is to design, implement and test a wearable healthcare monitoring system. The main idea is to develop a complete unit consisting of sensors, a digital signal processor or microcontroller, a small battery, etc, that monitors a patient condition and sends information wirelessly to a nurse room or to a doctor’s cell phone alerting them to the condition of the patient and perhaps the location. The unit has to be light, wearable, consumes power efficiently.
