Over the last week, I researched ways to get a nice looking ECG curve into my app as well as the client application. I've struggled a bit to get electrocardiogram but I have been supplied with Java code from AliveTec to study how to get the curve. I will be spending time trying to read and deeply understand this code, so that I can incorporate it into the app. The current app shows a poor ECG signal and is illegible. I think I'm getting close to solving the problem. Will post updates as they occur..

Over the Christmas and New Year Holidays I have worked on fixing the journal and book chapter. I've worked with my supervisors to get better feedback after each revision. I have managed to submit the two papers to the publishers just in time yesterday. Feel relieved to finally finish all the writing.

This week, I am going to go back and focus on the project. I will need to find ways to get a clear ECG waveform from the Bluetooth device as well as try to classify the ECG waveform and determine irregular patterns and so on. Also, I will have to implement the secure data sharing algorithm from the journal paper into the prototype health application. I also plan on integrating more than one type of health device to make our application more generic. I also plan on incorporating the project into Springroo. Looking forward to the work to do this year!
