Current status of project:
We have the finished the necessary background research for the first paper. We found numerous articles detailing the change in hemodynamic activity of the brain as an individual falls asleep. Additionally, we found a combined EEG/fMRI study that determined the amount of participants who fell asleep in an fMRI study. We also found several interesting patents concerning different methods of sleep detection, but none were specific to sleep detection for imaging. This information was integrated into an outline that will be used when creating the first report.
The group met briefly to develop a set of design specs. Additionally, we worked on a Gantt chart and a chart depicting the breakdown of tasks between group members.
Work planned for next week:
Amy is taking the lead on the preliminary report, and will have a draft by Wednesday, 9/23. Caroline and Jeff will edit & revise before due date of 9/25.
Anything needed from client or TA or instructor to continue work:
-eye tracker data from Dr. Dosenbach
