Annotation

The aim of my dissertation is a wearable device designed especially for somnambulant patients. In my method, I was first patterned on existing technologies, mainly IQRF, which I optimized and used it maximal capacities. Secondly, I examined available electronic devices and found their design absolutely insufficient. The primary function of the device which I present is monitoring sleeping position of a somnambulant patient which includes a cautionary and vibrating mechanism; hence it helps avoiding serious injuries. I put a special emphasis on cost; small size, easy control and intuitiveness. Another key factor it the visual form of the device with regards to ergonomic. I believe I designed a useful and effective product with a distinctive and original design.
