    This document describes a prosthetic arm system for paralyzed people that uses brain signals to control the arm. It analyzes brain signals known as beta waves associated with thinking. The signals are converted to binary data and used to train a backpropagation neural network. The trained network outputs signals to control the prosthetic arm based on the user's thoughts, allowing paralyzed people to perform daily tasks without assistance. The system aims to improve independence and quality of life for paralyzed individuals.

    PROSTHETIC ARM FOR

    PARALYZED PEOPLE

    OBJECTIVE

    The main aim of our project is to fulfill the


    basic needs of paralyzed people by
    themselves without depending on others.

    Paralysis is most often caused due to


    some fatal accidents and due to some
    diseases like stroke, trauma and multiple
    sclerosis etc.,
    SCOPE OF THE PROJECT
    The scope of our project is to convert the
    thoughts of paralyzed people into actions by
    simulation.
    (Thoughts are converted into signals by fitting
    electrodes inside the brain, the electrodes will
    convert the thoughts into four types of EEG
    signals namely Alpha, Beta, Delta, Theta.
    Among these EEG signals Beta signal is
    associated with thinking)
    Contd…

    Beta signal associated with thinking is


    chosen as an input to our project.

    Beta signal is generated in MATLAB, and


    is loaded into the wavelet toolbox for
    analyzing process.
    Contd…
    In the analyzing process the input signal is
    splitted into various type of signal.

    The coefficients of the analyzed signal is


    saved and converted into binary values.

    These binary values are then given as


    input to the Back Propagation Network,
    which will produce the final output.
    EXISTING SYSTEM

    The previous implementation makes use


    of many hardware equipments.

    Also the existing system was implemented


    using animals like monkeys, but at present
    only they are trying for human beings.
    PROPOSED SYSTEM

    Our project is more useful for the


    paralyzed people.

    The paralyzed people can do their


    day-to-day activities by themselves.
    HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS

    Processor : Pentium IV

    Main Memory : 256 MB

    Hard Disk Drive : 80 GB


    SOFTWARE REQUIREMENTS

    Plat Form : Windows XP/2000

    Front End : MATLAB (version 7)


    MODULES

    The modules of our project includes,

     Conversion of Thoughts to Signals.

     Conversion of signals to Binary data.

     Training and Testing BPN Network.


    CONVERSION OF THOUGHTS TO
    SIGNALS
     The Beta signal associated with thinking is
    generated using the sin function in
    MATLAB.
     The signal is then loaded into the wavelet
    tool box and is analyzed.
     The coefficients of analyzed signal is
    stored in workspace window.
    CONVERSION OF SIGNALS TO
    BINARY DATA
     The analyzed coefficients are loaded and
    converted into binary data using zeros
    and ones function.

     zeros - Create an array of all 0’s


     ones - Create an array of all 1’s
    BPN Architecture
    TRAINING AND TESTING BPN
    NETWORK

    The Back propagation network is initially


    trained by giving different input with the
    frequency range [13-30HZ].

    The network is then tested by giving the


    same and different frequencies as in the
    training process.
     If the testing input is in the range [13-
    30HZ] then the output will be one
    (i.e., there is arm movement) else the
    output will be zero (i.e., there is no
    arm movement).
    CONCLUSION
    Thus our project will be more useful for the
    paralyzed people.

    They can perform their day-to-day


    activities like drinking water, dressing,
    eating by themselves without depending
    on others.

    Even they can operate a computer and


    play games.
