Diabetic Data Collection
- Faculty lead: Prof. Murali Annavaram (Electical Engineering)
- Description: Extend "KNOWME", a wireless body area sensor network, to enable automatic collection of health assessment data for diabetic control. KNOWME is a complete, end-to-end, body area sensing system with biometric sensors that can be used to track the vital signs of an individual in real-time and in free-living conditions without interrupting the daily lives of the subjects. Previously, KNOWME has been deployed in Los Angeles, CA, for monitoring a pediatric obesity population.
