Sensor fusion on wearable EEG

Ulm University

Our group has developed a wearable EEG measurement device to continuous and unobtrusively monitor brain activity. The device is mainly used in the context of sleep studies where we explore the effect of audio stimulation on numerous physical and mental health issues such as Parkinson's, Hypertension, ADHD and Depression. We aim to extend the capabilities of the device by adding additional sensors for recording physiolgical parameters such as core temperature and photoplethysmography.
 

In this project you will configure our prototype device on flex-electronics to be able to record such data. This will include expanding the firmware to access sensors and expand the synchronized recording of the data. You will then have the opportunity to record first data sets, combine various datastreams  and evaluate the sensor performance and added value of using multimodal physiological data recordings.

How to apply

To apply for a project, please contact the responsible person via email with your name, email, study field and semester. Please also attach in pdf format your

  • short CV (~1 page),
  • transcripts,
  • previous project reports (if available),
  • and a short motivation (1 paragraph) why this would be the right project for you.

We will then contact you and work out a detailed project description and a learning agreement that are best suitable for you.

We are looking forward working with you!
