Design Problem Heat stroke THIRD leading cause of death among athletes in the United States. High temperature/high humidity increases heart rate, prevents body from effectively dissipating heat. Overheating, Exceeding limits exhaustion and cramps, common problems in athletes Hyperthermia Thermoregulatory mechanisms fail, organ damage or death. Symptoms: Seizures, disorientation, confusion, unconsciousness, coma

Design Brief Device to measure BOTH temperature and heart rate Conveniently and comfortably worn on the body during athletic activity. SIMPLE, user-friendly display, ALERTS user to stop activity when necessary

Thermoregulatory Breakdown • Dehydration • Loss of core-to-shell temperature gradient • Central Fatigue and Vasodilation http: //www. icsspe. org/members/bulletin/bilder 48/4 -1 -figure 5. gif http: //www. extension. iastate. edu/nutrition/sport/images/dehydration. jpg

The Heat Elite Solution. Therma. Tracker Infrared Emission Detector Thermometer • Feasibility • Accuracy • Comfort Photoplethysmography Transmission Pulse Oximeter on Earlobe Reflectance Pulse Oximeter on Forehead/Temple http: //www. medis-de. com/en/ppg. html

Specifications and Constraints • Measures BOTH heart rate and body temperature, allows for prediction of heat exhaustion, not just a training tool. • Wireless technology ensures portability of device. • The device must be comfortable to wear so as to not hinder athletic performance. • Accuracy of measurements is essential to prevent fatality and unnecessary withdrawal from athletic events. • Will be water resistant to prevent electric shock.

Specifications and Constraints • Battery life will be sufficient to power device through the length of athletic events. • Temperature and heart rate measurements will be easily readable by the user/trainer and equipped with an alarm for when unsafe levels are reached. • Customer: Athletic departments, e. g. college level and below • User: Athletes of organized sports, e. g. football and cross country • The cost to buy the device must be minimized so that school athletic programs can afford it.
