Wearables and Implantable | | Project Summary |
We aim to design a wearable that can be used to monitor muscle fatigue and growth in real time and assist the user in workout. | | Project Objectives |
- Developing an easy to use system to monitor muscle fatigue in real time.
- Monitoring the results of EMG and GSR and suggest which muscles require more exercise and which need to be at rest.
- Connecting the system to an app and suggest exercise tutorials on the basis of results achieved by EMG and GSR sensors.
| | Project Implementation Method |
- Sensors (EMG + GSR) will be embedded inside the garment (a sleeve in our case).
- The data from these sensors will be continuously monitored through a smartphone app which in turn will be connected to our system's database.
- Data from sensors will be transmitted to the app thorugh bluetooth and app will connect with our database using internet connection.
| | Benefits of the Project |
- It is observed that sometimes desired results are not obtained after workout and excess exercise of a muscle or wrong moves/postures can lead to injuries as well.
- Monitoring on real time will help to avoid these problems
| | Technical Details of Final Deliverable |
- Final deliverable will include :
- A wearable that can be used during workout/gym/rehab
- Wearable will be embedded with EMG and GSR sensors
- Sensors will send data to our smartphone app through bluetooth
- App will analyze the data by connectingt to our system's database
