Abstract

The development and realization of a portable wireless electroencephalogram (EEG) monitor has become feasible due to the recent active research activities in the area of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN). In this paper, we propose an EEG monitor design based on a commercially available WSN device, Body Sensor Networks node (BSN node). The device utilizes Zigbee technology and operates on the TinyOS operating system. The EEG signal from subjects is detected and radioed to a PC for monitoring. This study validates our approach and suggests the feasibility of future enhancements.
