EDSAP uses multiple sensors and a complex algorithm that keeps up with brainwave activity. The user can then use a smartphone or tablet to check up on the brainwave activity and predict the probability of a stroke. The sensor won’t do much for treating a stroke, but if the brain waves start to point towards a stroke, you’d know to seek out medical attention before things got serious.
While the sensor can predict the probability of someone having a stroke, it can also keep up with several other neurological health stats, including sleep patterns and stress and anxiety levels.
Currently, the EDSAP is only in the prototype phase, so it won’t see a major hardware release anytime soon. But still, it offers a great proof of concept that could very well make its way into other technology in the medical industry.
