 Microsal represents the research efforts of multiple faculties to create a third-generation implant-supported neuro-electrostimulation embedded device. This research report will only report on the hardware/firmware/software details regarding the project. As described in the related work section, the device’s main goal is to electrically stimulate the bucal and lingual nerve in order to produce the salivary response and increase the comfort of the patient. Additionally, besides the stimulation logic, the design also includes 2 passive sensors that are used to objectively evaluate the current conditions of the patient.  Microsal represents the research efforts of multiple faculties to create a third-generation implant-supported neuro-electrostimulation embedded device.

Additionally, besides the stimulation logic, the design also includes 2 passive sensors that are used to objectively evaluate the current conditions of the patient. 
 The information taken from the sensors will be used to determine if the patient’s condition is deteriorating or improving over time, providing valuable insight on the effectiveness of the treatment. This represents the next logical step for the evolution of the generational prototypes. Also, to facilitate communication to the device we have decided to use a chip that has a Bluetooth Low Energy component integrated inside. The NRF51822 chip, by Nordic Semiconductors fits the bill, being a highly advanced ARM microcontroller, with BLE functionality and extremely low power requirements The information taken from the sensors will be used to determine if the patient’s condition is deteriorating or improving over time, providing valuable insight on the effectiveness of the treatment.

 +===== Working on ======
 +
 +==== UI improve ====
 +
 +Current pain points:
 +  * create profiles for the stimulation parameters for each patient
 +  * add UI method other than typing to update stimulation parameters
 +  * create number of repetitions linked with TT
 +  * draw how the signal will look
 +  * show all patients, even the inactive ones
 +  * tabbed ui for patients
 +{{ :proiecte:microsal:75_ui.png?direct&200 |}}
 +==== Refactor the characteristics ====
 +
 +Current pain points:
 +    * add a time characteristic
 +    * add historical data download characteristic, with pair ack characteristic
 +      * will use a compression scheme
