Short Description
This Canine Convulsion / Epilepsy Alarm System has been designed to provide an alarm when an epilepsy episode in a dog is detected. The alarm consists of an alarm unit with power pack and a vibration detector.
A vibration sensor is placed on the chest of the dog attached to a walking harness. It registers the commencement of a seizure after a short time delay and initiates an alarm which can be either audible, vibratory or visual (flashing light).
