In this work we present the development of a monitoring system that is targeted to track the data of electrical potential measurements in biological tissues. The system is conceived to be portable and its design allows for low-energy consumption. To account for different types of biological materials, the measurement of the bioimpedance of the material is generally used. To achieve both speed and accuracy, we deploy a system using hardware-software codesign with reconfigurable hardware. This integral approach is facilitated by the use of a modern system of chip with mixed signal capabilities. In particular we use a field programmable gate array for accelerating signal processing and data acquisition. A double core microcontroller is used to collect, process and deliver the data over a networked environment.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
