Instrumented shoes for activity classification in the elderly

Kamiar Aminian, Anisoara Ionescu, Christopher Moufawad El Achkar

Quantifying daily physical activity in older adults can provide relevant monitoring and diagnostic information about risk of fall and frailty. In this study, we introduce instrumented shoes capable of recording movement and foot loading data unobtrusively ...

Instrumented shoes for daily activity monitoring in healthy and at risk populations

Christopher Moufawad El Achkar

Daily activity reflects the health status of an individual. Ageing and disease drastically affect all dimensions of mobility, from the number of active bouts to their duration and intensity. Performing less activity leads to muscle deterioration and furthe ...

Physical Behavior in Older Persons during Daily Life: Insights from Instrumented Shoes

Kamiar Aminian, Anisoara Ionescu, Christopher Moufawad El Achkar

Activity level and gait parameters during daily life are important indicators for clinicians because they can provide critical insights into modifications of mobility and function over time. Wearable activity monitoring has been gaining momentum in daily l ...

Physical activity monitoring based on wearable technology combining inertial and barometric pressure sensors

Fabien Massé

Stroke, or cerebral-vascular accident is the leading cause of disabilities in the western world. It primarily affects mobility due to a degradation of principal motor functions such as balance and gait. This reduction of mobility directly impacts the spect ...

EPFL2015

Wearable electronics are occupying an increasing portion of our daily activities. The span of wearable applications extends from purely medical, over different security services to various sports and fashion devices. Antennas play one of the most important ...

Suitability of commercial barometric pressure sensors to distinguish sitting and standing activities for wearable monitoring

Kamiar Aminian, Anisoara Ionescu, Julien Chardonnens, Fabien Massé, Alan Kevin Bourke

Despite its medical relevance, accurate recognition of sedentary (sitting and lying) and dynamic activities (e.g. standing and walking) remains challenging using a single wearable device. Currently, trunk-worn wearable systems can differentiate sitting fro ...

Implementation and validation methods applied to SSCOP

This paper outlines the methods used to realise the implementation of the Service Specific Connection Oriented Protocol (SSCOP) which forms a main component in the Signalling ATM Adaptation Layer (SAAL). We give a short introduction to Synchronous C++, a c ...
