RISETech x NUST BIOMISA

Wearable Epilepsy Monitor

EPIC, short for EPIlepsy Care, was a research stage wearable built to monitor generalized tonic clonic seizure events, log relevant sensor data, and notify caregivers through a connected mobile app. I developed it at RISETech with the BIOMISA group at The College of Electrical & Mechanical Engineering (CE&ME).

This was my first professional embedded project after university. As the Systems Design Engineer at RISETech, I was responsible for the design and implementation of this device, covering electronics architecture, schematic design, PCB layout, sensor integration, firmware, signal acquisition and filtering, BLE communication, battery and charging design, enclosure CAD, prototyping, testing, documentation, and supplier coordination.

Coming soon

The full case study is being written

The complete write-up for Wearable Epilepsy Monitor, the engineering decisions behind it, the trade-offs, and the results, is being prepared and will be published here soon. The summary above is the short version for now.
