Abstract :
A wearable wireless general purpose bio-signal acquisition prototype system is presented in this paper. Three types of bio-signals could be acquired by the system then wirelessly transmitted to the computer for real-time processing. The prototype experimental results show that the system could acquire electrocardiogram (ECG), surface-electromyography (s-EMG) and electroencephalogram (EEG) for home healthcare and telemedicine.
