This study is being done to find out if a smartphone app can identify absence seizures. Children who have a history of absence seizures, as well as children without any seizure history, will be testing out the app. If participating the child will be guided through hyperventilation, an activity that asks the child to take quick, deep breaths. The app will record video of the child's face and sounds they make during hyperventilation. Hyperventilation is a safe and established technique frequently used during EEG (electroencephalogram) to encourage seizure occurrence. The App will be used during a regularly scheduled EEG.
