Advanced sensor development for
attention, stress, vigilance & sleep/wakefulness
monitoring
Sleep loss, excessive fatigue,
stress and inattention constitute the social
diseases of our century. Within the "24 hour
society" people tend more and more to exchange sleep
and serenity for gain or pleasure. This gradually
leads to an excessive rate of sleep disorders,
roughly 20% of the population suffer from one, at
least mildly or temporarily, as well as to a boom of
stress and anxiety related diseases. In addition, a
significant percentage of severe traffic and
industrial accidents seem to be caused by the
involuntary human transition from wakefulness to
sleep or by prolonged inattention. SENSATION aims to
explore a wide range of micro and nano sensor
technologies, with the aim to achieve unobtrusive,
cost-effective, real-time monitoring, detection and
prediction of human physiological state in relation
to wakefulness, fatigue and stress anytime,
everywhere and for everybody. Thus, the different
states of human brain are analysed within
SubProjectl. Big databases with recordings of normal
and involuntary (during task-execution) transition
from wakefulness to sleep from hundreds of people
will be created to serve as development and
reference basis. In Subproject 2, 17 micro sensors
and 2 nano sensors are developed. They include brain
monitoring, wearable, eye-related posture and
motility and autonomie functions sensors; all
wirelessly integrated through a body/local/wide area
network. These sensors are combined into medical
systems for medical diagnosis and treatment within
Subproject 3. They will be also integrated in a
system for operator's hypovigilance detection and
prediction, to be used in various industrial
operations and environments within Subproject 4. The
overall IP is coordinated by a series of
cross-project activities within Subproject 5, which
cover management, training, system architecture,
dissemination, evaluation, exploitation, user
awareness enhancement, standardisation, ethical and
legal issues.
