Abstract The purpose of this device is to make the life of people who have epilepsy easier by notifying them by vibrating the device when the body's blood pressure, heart rate and breathing rate suddenly change. This device should notify the person before the seizure occurs to ensure the person's safety and so the person would be able to get on the ground and tell people before it happens. It will also contact EMS if the seizure has gone on for 2 minutes, because 5 minutes is a medical emergency, and it should give time for them to get there.
