FCSIT, University of MalayaChapter 1 – Introduction1.1 Project OverviewBrain Builder – is a computer stimulation system to enhance the Memory, Relaxation and SleepDisorders is a standalone system to assist users in enhance their alpha brain wave and theta brain waveand hence will enhancing their leaning ability, improve memory and to assist in sleeping and relaxing.The brain builder consist 4 different biofeedback training which user has the freedom to choose inhelping them achieving their desire state of brain activity, for example, relaxing. The system also comeswith a function that allow user to add/ edit/ delete the material of the training.1.2 Problem StatementWe are born with fixed number of billions 110~130 neurons (living cells) connected to eachother through millions of networks. The number of neuron will not increase but they will die. The onlything that can increase is neurons network. Scientist believes that our brain can be physically improvesthrough proper stimulation. In principle, the stimulation can be done through biofeedback techniques.Biofeedback is a method for learning the control of physiological responses of the body via electronicmonitor equipment. The neurons are responding to all our thoughts and feelings which makebiofeedback training effective. Every thoughts, feelings, sensations, memory and level of awareness hasa corresponding brain wave pattern. The biofeedback training will be accompanied by devices such asEEG, EMG and skin temperature which EEG monitors the brain activities, EMG monitors muscle activityand the skin temperature is monitor the temperature.In life, many of us from young and old will somehow face problem related to brain activity likedifficulty in memorizing facts or having a hard time to relax when it is time to rest. If these problemsremain for a long time, it could lead to stress or even mental illness. As such, there is such a need tohave a system that is capable of training user to overcome all those problems mentioned and toincrease their brain activity through what is known as the biofeedback training. There are a couple ofknown systems through our findings that is quite identical with the system that we propose whichmostly originated from Japan. However here in Malaysia we have found none of such system exists. Assuch we would like to initiate such system to be used within the nation.1 | P a g e

FCSIT, University of Malaya1.3 Project ObjectiveThe objective of this project is to develop Brain Builder system. Through this system, user canincrease their brain activity and thus Improves their learning and problem solving capabilities, increasethe user’s memory and also Induces relaxation, improving imagery and fantasy abilities throughbiofeedback training. Besides, user can also maintain their profile such as edit their personal details,change the password, views their training log, views the training statistic and views the EEG summary.The modules below describe the functional requirement of the system for user part as follows:a) Biofeedback TrainingThere are 4 different types of training sessions. They are aroma therapy, music therapy,Imagination therapy and meditation video.b) User ProfileUser maintains their own profile and also monitor and keep track of their brain activity andtraining session.c) HelpThis manual will teach user step by step in using the system. A detail explanation of everyfunction will be included in this manualFunctional requirement of the system for administrator part are as follows:a) Manage TrainingAdministrator can add/ edit/ delete training materials of the system.b) Manage UserAdministrator can add/ edit/ delete user account, and view their training statistic andtraining log.1.4 Project ScopeBrain Builder is a system design to cater for anyone who has the intention to increase his/herbrain activity to induce relaxation, improve memory and imaginary abilities. User who have problem insleeping or suffers from sleep disorders also can benefit from the system. This project will include a userpart that:• Increase the alpha wave and theta wave through 3 types of biofeedback training.• See User Profile (Personal Details, Log, EEG)This project also includes administrator part that:Maintain TrainingMaintain User Profile2 | P a g e

FCSIT, University of Malaya1.5 Project MethodologyThe methodology chosen for this project is prototyping model. Prototype model is a process ofdeveloping software project by first gather requirements from client and then transform therequirements in to prototype. The prototype will show to the client for any changes.The prototyping methodology is chosen for this project because it meets all the criteria stated:1) Fast development2) Suitable to this project size3) Able to examine by client from time to time. By using prototyping methodology, thisproject will be able complete on time.1.6 Expected OutcomeThe expected outcome for user part is a system capable of enhancing memory, relaxation andsleep disorder that includes the functions and features stated below: -a. Allow user to choose from 4 different kind of biofeedback trainingb. Allow user to stop and change a current training sessionc. Allow user to edit their profile.d. Allow user to change their password.e. Allow user to view their training log.f. Allow user to view their training statistic.g. Allow user to view their EEG summary.h. Allow user to view the help file on using the systemi. Allow admin to add training materials.j. Allow admin to edit training materials.k. Allow admin to delete training materials.l. Allow admin to view the training materials.m. Allow admin to create new user.n. Allow admin to edit user profile.o. Allow admin to delete user.p. Allow admin to view user training log.q. Allow admin to view user training statistic.r. Allow admin to view user EEG summary.s. Allow admin to view the help file on using the system.3 | P a g e

There aprecise schedule plan is needed to complete the project within the timeline. Figure 1.1 shows a Ganttchart for the development of the project within the estimated time in order to complete every task thatwe have identified.Figure 1.1: Gantt Charta. Article Review• Find relevant article and journals about the project title• Read through each article found• Summarize 3 most relevant articlesb. Project Initiation• Understanding the project• Determine the problem statement and objective to be achieved• Reviewed previous project report for project outline referencesc. Literature Review• Analysis, research and summarize 3 articles or journals which is relevant to the title ofthe project• Determine the tools to be used for this project like framework, database andmultimedia• Finalize the comparison and select appropriate tools from the comparison result.4 | P a g e

FCSIT, University of Malayad. Requirement Analysis• Identify the functional and non – functional requirement of the systems• Determine the suitable methodology for the system to meet the functional and nonfunctionalrequirement within the project timelinee. System Design• Identify the system design goal• Convert the functional and non-functional requirement of the system into systemrepresentation like diagrams or chart• Draw a suitable UML diagram to model the system architecture design of the systemf. System Development• Develop the system modules according to the system design using the selectedprogramming language, multimedia tools and database decided in the earlier phase• After develop all the system modules, combine all sub modules and modules to becomea fully functional systemg. System Testing• Conduct a system testing on the system – white box testing and black box testing• Conduct a user acceptance test for the system before dateline• While conducting system testing, debug the system if bug(s) is found during the testh. Maintenance• Maintain the system from time to time by solving the system fault• Add new features to the system when necessary• Maintain the database of the system from time to time and backup if neededi. Documentation• Document the entire system development process• Finalize all document gather which is relevant to the project.5 | P a g e
