Smart pillow uses the breath frequency and turns of user. The algorithms processes the information and determine what sleep stages are users in. thus we can analyze the sleep cycle, and avoid waking users when they are in deep sleep. Moreover, for those who suffer from sleep apnea, when smart pillow detect no breath for a period of time, smart pillow will vibrate gently to make user to start to breathe. The smart pillow is an innovation that are combined with Bluetooth, acoustic sensor, pressure sensor and motor. Acoustic sensor and pressure sensor are used to provide information for analyzing sleep, while motor is used to wake people and for those who have sleep apnea. Bluetooth can send message to smart phone. We hope we can popularize the smart pillow in the future, smart pillow records and analyzes the sleep habit of users, through the information, is can wake users in proper time, improve the quality of sleep, and reduce sleep problem.

User Manual

Before Running This Application

In order to open UART_2
We need to modify following files

• emsk_init.c (board\emsk\common)

set_pmod_mux(mux_regs, PM1_UR_UART_0 | PM1_LR_SPI_S	\
				| PM2_I2C_HRI			\
				| PM3_GPIO_AC			\
				| PM4_I2C_GPIO_D		\
				| PM5_UR_SPI_M1 | PM5_LR_UART_2	\
				| PM6_UR_SPI_M0 | PM6_LR_GPIO_A );

• mux.h (board\emsk\drivers)

/**

• dw_uart_obj.h (board\emsk\drivers)
• dw_uart_obj.c (board\emsk\drivers)

In order to calculate CPU Loading
We need to modify following files

• task.h (os\freertos)
• task.c (os\freertos\inc)

Run This Application

Here take EMSK2.2 - ARC EM7DFPU

1. Open your serial terminal such as Tera-Term on PC, and configure it to right COM port and 115200bps.

2. Interact using EMSK.

folder/file	Function
FreeRTOSConfig.h	header file of FreeRTOS configurations
main.c	main entry of embARC Application
makefile	Makefile of embARC Application

Makefile

• Selected FreeRTOS here, then you can use FreeRTOS API in your application:

    # Application name
    APPL ?= freertos_kernel
  
    # Selected OS
    OS_SEL ?= freertos
  

• Target options about EMSK and toolchain:

    TOOLCHAIN=gnu
    BOARD=emsk
    BD_VER=22
    CUR_CORE=arcem7d
  

• The relative series of the root directory, here the path of the Makefile is ./embarc_osp/:

    #
    # root dir of embARC
    #
    EMBARC_ROOT = ../embARC
  

• The middleware used in your application:

    MID_SEL = common
  

  common for baremetal function

• Directories of source files and header files:

    # application source dirs
    APPL_CSRC_DIR = .
    APPL_ASMSRC_DIR = .
  
    # application include dirs
    APPL_INC_DIR = .
  
    # include current project makefile
    COMMON_COMPILE_PREREQUISITES += makefile
  
    ### Options above must be added before include options.mk ###
    # include key embARC build system makefile
    override EMBARC_ROOT := $(strip $(subst \,/,$(EMBARC_ROOT)))
    include $(EMBARC_ROOT)/options/options.mk
