Predictor of the epileptic crisis

The ignorance of the arrival of the epileptic crisis is a great drawback for those suffering from epilepsy, since an accidental capture can cause serious accidents. In this sense, they have created in the United States an apparatus capable of predicting when the crisis will occur. The system records brain activity, compares it with data collected and alerts the crisis when there is an important change of activity. It seems that before the crisis the brain heats up and the developed software is capable of detecting warming. The device emits the signal 8 minutes in advance. The patient, therefore, has enough time to stop doing. Currently, an apparatus capable of supporting the inventors of the system is being designed.
