Abstract

The ARMOR project addresses the needs of the epileptic patient and healthcare professional, aiming at the design and development of a nonintrusive Personal Health System (PHS) for the monitoring and analysis of epilepsy- relevant multi-parametric data, (i.e. EEG, EOG, EMG, EKG, skin conductance data) and the documentation of the epilepsy related symptoms. ARMOR platform incorporates models derived from data analysis based on already existing state-of-the-art communication platform solutions emphasizing on security issues and required adaptations to meet ARMOR specifications. In this context, this chapter aims to provide an extensive description of the main aspects and issues addressed in the project as well as the main characteristics of the developed platform.
