Computerization entails several advantages, among which the availability of a great amount of stimuli to be used within a wide range of easily customizable exercise types and the possibility to monitor the evolution of a patient's skills through the storage of his performance data into a database. Furthermore, a computerized system can automatically assess the patient and adjust each exercise's difficulty accordingly. Patients undergoing exercises which fail to entertain them and stimulate their curiosity, are very likely to develop fatigue and boredom; besides, perceiving computerized rehabilitation as stressful and uncomfortable could very likely reduce the subject's compliance. For this reason great efforts are to be made in order to avoid the onset of stress states: this is why we chose to differentiate the exercises as much as possible before testing the tool on volunteers and patients. The results led us to improve the system, focusing mainly on the visual aspect of the exercises and to introduce 3D technology into our system.","PeriodicalId":120856,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Pervasive Computing Technologies for Healthcare","volume":"94 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131013612","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Mainly marker-less motion tracking cameras play a special role in the automation of physical rehabilitation. These inexpensive cameras can provide accurate information about the movements and poses of the subject without complicated setup. However, these cameras are still not perfect and experience problems in particular poses, setups or when users are interacting. Interaction between a patient and the therapist is a crucial and inevitable aspect of the therapy and results in frustrations when using new technologies. In this paper we propose a method that can identify whether a therapist is interacting with a patient or not, in order to improve not only the therapy sessions but also the quality of the data collected during the gameplay or assessment, automated with the modern input sensors. We compare our measurement results with a marker based motion tracking system (Vicon) and additional scores to demonstrate the importance of identifying interactions between a therapist and patients.","PeriodicalId":120856,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Pervasive Computing Technologies for Healthcare","volume":"63 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121832397","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

But so far, smart textiles [ST] have not significantly penetrated the market. To identify possible reasons, the acceptance of important stakeholders must be investigated. This paper offers a first step in this direction by presenting a questionnaire study on user requirements of smart wearable textiles. To find out whether there is a generic attitude towards ST, this study is focused on a comparison of user requirements in two settings, sport and health care, as two central fields of application for this technology. First results show that there are differences in the evaluation of requirements of ST pertaining to ease of use, permanent information provision about one's health status, data security as well as the design of such textiles, based on the usage context.","PeriodicalId":120856,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Pervasive Computing Technologies for Healthcare","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121904818","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study was conducted adopting a human-centred approach; employing focus groups and individual interviews with older adults, professional caregivers and psychologists specialized in the aging process. Results indicated that users were in favour of a virtual companion and highlighted its potential to assist the accomplishment of daily activities and make more efficient use of human care services. Humanlike communication and behaviour were desirable whereas mixed opinions were expressed about humanlike appearance. The ramifications of the study are discussed in the form of design implications for the development of a virtual assistive companion that possesses the appropriate \"social skills\" to establish and maintain comfortable and acceptable long-term interaction and offers \"useful\" support to older adults.","PeriodicalId":120856,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Pervasive Computing Technologies for Healthcare","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117184791","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Following the notion of the Virtual Physiological Human (VPH), a computational model of both the kinematics and dynamics of the human knee is developed that is subsequently simulated for typical motions and activities. The proposed scheme provides a feasibility study on how VPH simulations can be used in a pre-surgical step for optimal planning of several parameters related to the surgical procedure (e.g. physical vs. synthetic reconstruction, positioning, etc.). The effect of the choice of these parameters on the motor behaviour of the knee can be estimated through the proposed simulation scheme, thus leading to a powerful clinical decision support system. Experimental evaluation demonstrates the clinical potential of the proposed framework.","PeriodicalId":120856,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Pervasive Computing Technologies for Healthcare","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128710319","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We discuss the placement of sensing modules, the garment design and the integration of smart textiles and wearable electronics. The garment has been designed to support posture feedback during rehabilitation training, e.g., in the context of arm-hand training, or to be used as a posture correction aid worn throughout the day.

However, little research has been done in this regard utilizing eye movement metrics in rehabilitation contexts. In this study we approach action observation and action execution by combining a virtual environment and eye tracking technology. Participants consisted of stroke survivors, and were required to perform a simple reach-and-grab and place-and-release task with both their paretic and non-paretic arm. Results showed congruency in gaze metrics between action execution and action observation, for distribution and duration of gaze events. Furthermore, in action observation, longer smooth pursuit segments were detected when observing the representation of the paretic arm, thus providing evidence that the affected circuitry may be activated during observation of the simulated action. These results can lead to novel rehabilitation methods using virtual reality technology.","PeriodicalId":120856,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Pervasive Computing Technologies for Healthcare","volume":"83 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131796172","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
