The Atom connects to the nearest Element out of the box with little interference and requiring no device-level configuration. In the Kit is an adaptor shield that fits directly over your Arduino, the kit also contains the Helium Element access point. We are very conscious that our device handles health specific data, and the Helium platform bakes in everything you need for highly secure cloud connectivity. The Helium Atom is a dual-band, long range, low-power, hardware-secured IEEE-standards compliant wireless module that can be purchased in a starter kit. As in all great projects, Build up in small sections and test, test, Test!
Galvanic skin response and heart rate graph software#
The Build consists of Hardware and Software components.
We found Neurosky incredibly helpful to us, and they have an excellent set of Developer tools to enable Arduino connectivity. We measure Brain emissions using the innovative Neurosky Mindwave Mobile 2 Headset, which uses a TGAT Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) to perform Network edge calculations prior to our Helium Channel Transport. Considerable research is still being done on all of these. A very high level overview generally categorises these frequencies into five distinct bands.Ġ.5-4 Hz: Delta waves are associated with deep sleep and are known for triggering healing and growth hormones, hence the reason why sleep is so important!Ĥ-8 Hz: Theta waves apparently occur mainly in children during early sleep stages, in emotionally stressed adults, or are somehow involved with learning and navigationĨ-13 Hz: Alpha waves occur when a person is relaxed, but alertġ4-30 Hz: Beta waves occur when a person is focused, alert and engagedĪbove 30 Hz: Gamma waves are associated with sensory perception or perception of consciousness. Significant Electroencephalography (EEG) research has repeatedly shown that the brain produces low frequency emissions that vary in frequency and amplitude according to activities and mental state. The Human Brain is an amazing and complex organ that has been studied and marvelled for centuries. Strong emotion may cause stimulus to your nervous system, resulting more sweat being secreted by the sweat glands.
Galvanic skin response (GSR), is a method of measuring the electrical conductance (Actually resistance!) of the skin.
We can then visualise the interpreted results and flag patterns that we believe match a state of Anxiety. The Device measures several parameters and sends the combinations securely via our Helium Channel to Google Cloud for analysis. By taking this concept on a product journey we would be able to provide direct benefits to the individuals and carers and system benefits for government and health organisations. We believe that a combination of skin resistance, pulse data, brainwave patterns and machine learning provides a more reliable indicator of anxiety states that any other commercially available product. We are using a blend of biometric measurements combined with the potential of machine learning to correlate and display relevant events. Inspired by the desire of helping a close friend, as well as millions of people across the globe, we've decided to create a concept that can surface possible anxiety states in early stages of manifestation.
