USPTO Abstract
Disclosed is a device and method for detecting and alerting of an epileptic seizure. The detector is wearable by an active user and does not interfere with normal daily movement. The detector is based on at least one motion sensor, and performs computerized analysis to determine whether a seizure is occurring. The motion signal parameters are compared to non-epileptic epileptic motion signal parameters; and to epileptic parameters, and a decision is reached whether to signal an alert. In a preferred embodiment, analysis relies on one or more of the following signal parameters of the motion: the duration of the motion, the frequency of the motion, the amplitude of the signal, the direction of the motion, and the ratio of the amplitude over the frequency of the motion
