Ⅰ. INTRODUCTION A. Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) B. Current Issue  Despite of high relapse rate of BPPV, it can be treated only at hospital  The Epley maneuver is difficult to perform without the help of a physician C. Proposal A. System Description  Development of a wearable system for diagnosis and treatment of BPPV at home - Determines occurrence of BPPV using ENG (Electro-Nystagmogram) signal - Provides sound guided instructions for the BPPV treatment - Provides real-time performance feedback through head motion tracking using accelerometer, gyro, and magnetometer C. Epley Maneuver Guiding System A. Validation of the ENG measurement system B. Effectiveness of Epley Maneuver Guiding system  The ratio of slopes per eye motion determines the direction of ENG  ENG signal of 10 subjects were tested for algorithm validation  Developed a wearable system which can measure ENG signal and head motion tracking  Electrode / Circuit integration and system miniaturizing for future work  System validation in BPPV patients in the future  Size : 102.4 x 60 mm, ‘Behind The Ear’ Type System  The result shows that proposed system perform s better than existing handout system.  9 people tested for validation of Epley Maneuver Guiding System (Statistical Analysis Method : Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test) Fig.1 System Block Diagram Fig.3 Developed System Fig.4 Distinguishing a recorded ENG from the left/right ENG (a) Measured ENG Signal, (b) detection method for ENG direction  Performance of ENG Direction decision algorithm - Sensitivity : 1.00, Specificity : 0.85 Table 1 Comparison of accuracies for each step with or without the guide B.
