Abstract

This paper concerns emerging large number and complex architecture wearable and implantable medical devices intended to achieve massively parallel measurement of various vital functions and healthcare parameters such as EEG, iEEG, neurorecording, seizure prediction and detection, and vision recovery for the blinds. In order to continuously monitor critical health events and activities, and to communicate the needed parameters to Physicians, and to calibrate these conditions, connections through Internet is becoming a necessity.
