Premature detection of malignant melanoma remains the primary factor in reducing mortality from this form of cancer. During the last decade diagnostic sensitivity and specificity have improved through the utilization of new computer-based technologies, which help improve lesion selection for pathology review and biopsy. Despite these advances in melanoma diagnosis, initial detection, timely recognition...
Spinal Cord Injury (SCI), along with disability, results in changes of brain organization and structure. While sensorimotor networks of patients and healthy individuals share similar patterns, unique functional interactions have been identified in SCI networks. Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCIs) have emerged as a promising technology for movement restoration and rehabilitation of SCI patients. We describe...
A wearable computing navigation aid for the visually impaired was designed, tested and evaluated in a series of pilot experiments. The system comprises an ultrasonic transceiver, a digital compass with a built-in accelerometer, sound playback electronics, a vibration motor and a microcontroller, all integrated inside a glove. The system prototype is power autonomous for about an hour and interfaces...
A flexible, scaleable and cost-effective medical telemetry system is described for monitoring sleep-related disorders in the home environment. The system was designed and built for real-time data acquisition and processing, allowing for additional use in intensive care unit scenarios where rapid medical response is required in case of emergency. It comprises a wearable body area network of Zigbee-compatible...
