Wareable mobile measuring device based on electrical tomography

Abstract

In this article, we describe modelling of an advanced system of electrical tomography for biomedical applications. The collection of tomographic data must be as fast as reliable, in order to take into account the algorithms of reversing the tomography with almost real-time update. To provide a high-level application programming interface using standard communication protocols and execute user-level programs. System architecture and prototype designs for biomedical electrical tomography are presented. Details of the implementation are explained for two prototype devices: a separate FPGA / microcontroller chip and a hardware microprocessor containing a system that contains a microprocessor, peripherals and an FPGA system. The algorithms of electrical reconstruction of impedance tomography have been tested. New results of the reconstruction of the numerically simulated phantom were presented. The calculations were made for the defined model by solving the inverse problem.
