This work analyzes the results of measurements on thermal energy harvesting through a wearable Thermo-electric Generator (TEG) placed arms and legs. Four large skin areas were chosen as locations for placement TEGs. In order to place generator body, special manufactured band guaranteed proper contact between TEG. Preliminary performed find out value resistor load which maximizes power output. Then, an experimental investigation was conducted measurement harvested while users performing daily...
This paper describes the design of an electronic instrument for measuring bilirubin by optical method light transmission through skin. There was knowledge and absorption on a specific tissue compartment applied. The relevant skin photo-diagnostics handle 450nm - green 575nm- blue monochromatic light. registration transmitted different frequency combinations presents quantity in human body non-invasive way. used device successfully tested relevantly confronted with accurate laboratory...
Piezoelectric transducers can be used to both harvest biomechanical energy and detect gait cycle events. Several designing factors influence the efficiency of harvesting system, such as location transducers, their mechanical/electrical parameters correct matching load resistor. In this research, a piezoelectric polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) film - LDT4-028k is simultaneously harvester for recovering associated with human walking, an active sensor stance swing phases gait. The PVDF...
The aim of this work is to design and realize the experimental diagnostic instrument for biological data measurement. In biomedical engineering daily live necessary measure analyze wide range variables coming primary from humans or animals. There are measured mostly electrical signals in vivo vitro subjects. Concerning these requirements we proposed cheap quality balanced measuring device six channels with 2 kHz 12 bit ADC resolution equipped USB bus. our were realized photoplethysmography...
Described project presents a hardware solution of Image Processing Unit based on Spartan-6 FPGA programmable logic. The unit consists digitizing videoconverter module (Kasik, 2011), NEXYS 3 board with (Digilent, 2013) and color TFT touch screen display 2011). As the video source for serves composite output from Canon MV530i camcorder (Canon-europe, 2002). converter is in parallel ITU-BT.656 data format. processing implements several functions which include conversion to RGB colors,...

The design realization are presented, together with description its features functioning tests. designed device, relay element, driven by an electric signal that allows switching at two specific frequencies, used to simulate fetus mother’s heartbeat. simulator was be compliant standard requirements accurate assessment measurement...
Algorithms for real-time imaging in medicine are continuously improving. For example an image reconstruction requires rapid processing of large volume data obtained. One way to speed up certain parts the is use FPGAs. Using this technology can further enhance integration electronic systems level mobile systems. The objective paper reveal and demonstrate possibility accelerating algorithms medical technique using FPGA. Conventional graphical outputs implemented control unit with a video...
This paper is dealing with the final assembly of spectrophotometric instrument and especially creating control calculation software. The resulting device primarily intended for measuring phototherapy sources used in neonatal wards hospitals. On basis measured spectrum (i. e. dependence radiation intensity on wavelength) other input parameters are calculated spectrometric, radiometric, photometric colorimetric values by program.
