What Are The Symptoms Of A Seizure?

Hello Sir, I m Harika,a final year Computer Engineering student,working on medical product design as a part of my final thesis.I m working on designing a device that can detect and predict an Epileptic seizure.I have talked to several patients and their caretakers till now and I m trying to interact with neurologists currently.I have a few questions and I request you to clarify them. 1.When a patient gets admitted after a seizure,what data do you need to give him a proper medication(duration of seizure,etc)? 2.Does heartbeat of a patient play any role in detecting or predicting a seizure? 3.What all symptoms can help me in detecting the seizure? 4.What all symptoms can help me in predicting the seizure? 5.In which area of a human body can we observe all those symptoms? 6.What are your basic expectations from my device?

Losing consciousness, which is followed by confusion, having uncontrollable muscle spasms, drooling or frothing at the mouth, falling, having a strange taste in your mouth, clenching your teeth, biting your tongue, having sudden and rapid eye movements.
