A Survey of Sensing Modalities for Human Activity, Behavior, and Physiological Monitoring

Abstract

In this paper, we present a survey of emerging technologies for non-invasive human activity, behavior, and physiological sensing. The survey focuses on technologies that are close to entering the commercial market, or have only recently become available. We intend for this survey to give researchers in any field relevant to human data collection an overview of currently accessible devices and sensing modalities, their capabilities, and how the technologies will mature with time.
