Abstract
In the initial phase of a child's life, illnesses and disabilities might develop an impact on their childhood growth, such as Epilepsy disorder. The impact of Epilepsy disorder can affect the lives of both children and teenagers. Epilepsy can affect the child's health, emotion, behavior as well as the ability to learn and grow. Furthermore, Epilepsy is a recurrent condition of seizures that involves different types of symptoms that vary from one child to another. This paper represents a wearable device that can perceive the symptoms of seizers and epilepsy by detecting the changes of the oxygen levels in the blood, heartbeats, muscle spasms, and body's temperature and humidity sensor that connects to the parent's mobile application that notifies the child's current condition. In addition, the Tech-Wearable Shirt will have an alert system that consists of a buzzer, vibration, and LED indicator that can be used for emergency cases to alert the supervisors. Consequently, This wearable device will help parents notice problems early and respond quickly, making life easier for children with Epilepsy and their families.
