Popis: The subject of my work is a design and realization of a system for detection of epileptic seizure with convulsions of sleeping person. This system should be used for monitoring in homecare. It should bring another possibility or help for people suffering epileptic seizures. The design is based on idea that epileptic seizure with convulsions can be detect through shaking of person and his bed. The sensors with accelerometers placed on bed and possibly on patient's leg measure the shakes and vibrations of patient or bed. The measuring data will be processing in real time and the software application should detect and warn surroundings of stricken person in case of epileptic seizure with convulsions.
