Postural instability is prevalent in aging and neurodegenerative disease, decreasing quality of life and independence. Quantitatively monitoring balance control is important for assessing treatment efficacy and rehabilitation progress.…
Postural sway assessment is important for detecting balance problems and identifying people at risk of falls. Force plates (FP) are considered the gold standard postural sway assessment method in laboratory conditions, but their lack of…
Traditional approaches to measurement in upper-limb therapy have gaps that electronic sensing and recording can help fill. We highlight shortcomings in current kinematic recording devices, and we introduce a wrist sensing device that…
Estimation of temporospatial clinical features of gait (CFs), such as step count and length, step duration, step frequency, gait speed, and distance traveled, is an important component of community-based mobility evaluation using wearable…
Acuity assessments are vital in critical care settings to provide timely interventions and fair resource allocation. Traditional acuity scores rely on manual assessments and documentation of physiological states, which can be…
Human maintain their body balance by sensorimotor controls mainly based on information gathered from vision, proprioception and vestibular systems. When there is a lack of information, caused by pathologies, diseases or aging, the subject…
Background: Pressure mapping technology has been adapted to monitor over prolonged periods to evaluate pressure ulcer risk in individuals during extended lying postures. However, temporal pressure distribution signals are not currently used…
Autonomic Dysreflexia (AD) is a potentially life-threatening condition characterized by sudden, severe blood pressure (BP) spikes in individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI). Early, accurate detection is essential to prevent cardiovascular…
Digital human models of motion sickness have been actively developed, among which models based on subjective vertical conflict (SVC) theory are the most actively studied. These models facilitate the prediction of motion sickness in various…
Falling in Parkinsonian syndromes (PS) is associated with postural instability and consists a common cause of disability among PS patients. Current posturographic practices record the body's center-of-pressure displacement (statokinesigram)…
Human gait can be a predictive factor for detecting pathologies that affect human locomotion according to studies. In addition, it is known that a high investment is demanded in order to raise a traditional clinical infrastructure able to…
The severity of atrial fibrillation (AF) can be assessed from intra-operative epicardial measurements (high-resolution electrograms), using metrics such as conduction block (CB) and continuous conduction delay and block (cCDCB). These…
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, and sustained hypertension is an often silent risk factor, making cuffless continuous blood pressure (BP) monitoring with wearable devices important for…
Tactile perception is an increasingly popular gateway in human-machine interaction, yet universal design guidelines for tactile displays are still lacking, largely due to the absence of methods to measure sensibility across skin areas. In…
Accurate diagnosis of gait impairments is often hindered by subjective or costly assessment methods, with current solutions requiring either expensive multi-camera equipment or relying on subjective clinical observation. There is a critical…
In human locomotion, sensorimotor synchronization of gait consists of the coordination of stepping with rhythmic auditory cues (auditory cueing, AC). AC changes the long-range correlations among consecutive strides (fractal dynamics) into…
The refractory period and conduction delay of the atrioventricular (AV) node play a crucial role in regulating the heart rate during atrial fibrillation (AF). Beat-to-beat variations in these properties are known to be induced by the…
We present a new machine learning based bed-occupancy detection system that uses the accelerometer signal captured by a bed-attached consumer smartphone. Automatic bed-occupancy detection is necessary for automatic long-term cough…
This study investigates the effects of anthropometric attributes, biological sex, and posture on translational body kinematic responses in translational vibrations. In total, 35 participants were recruited. Perturbations were applied on a…
Accurate and temporally consistent modeling of human bodies is essential for a wide range of applications, including character animation, understanding human social behavior and AR/VR interfaces. Capturing human motion accurately from a…
