Such a system aims to assist everyday users with static and dynamic exercises for gait rehabilitation interventions by providing auditory feedback based on plantar pressure distribution and automated classification of functional gait disorders. As ground reaction force (GRF) data are frequently used in clinical practice to quantitatively describe human motion and have been successfully used for the classification of gait patterns into clinically relevant classes, a feed-forward neural network was implemented on the firmware of the insoles to estimate the GRFs using pressure and acceleration data. The estimated GRFs approximated well the GRF measurements obtained from force plates. To distinguish between physiological gait and gait disorders, we trained and evaluated a support vector machine with labeled data from a publicly accessible dataset. The automated gait classification was then sonified for auditory feedback. The potential of the implemented auditory feedback for preventive and supportive applications in physical therapy was finally assessed with both expert and non-expert participants. A focus group revealed experts’ expectations for the proposed system, while a usability study assessed the clarity of the auditory feedback to everyday users. The evaluation shows promising results regarding the usefulness of our system in this application area.","PeriodicalId":54628,"journal":{"name":"Personal and Ubiquitous Computing","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136022152","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}

However, smart technologies also have social consequences, which are important to understand. At a basic level, we need to know more about learning to live with these technologies and how they influence our everyday practices and routines. Providing in-depth longitudinal insights into these processes, this paper presents an auto-ethnography of living with smart home technology: a 20-month diary kept by one of the authors. The paper uses theories of practice to investigate details of learning processes when interacting with three selected technologies: smart alarm and lighting management, smart control of heating, and a smart electric vehicle (EV). Theories of learning have a well-established tradition within theories of practice, and the concept of \"knowing how to go on\" and the concept of practical intelligibility are central in this work. This paper investigates the adoption of new smart technologies and how they interact with learning processes in different material and social contexts. Such an approach can lay the groundwork for further empirical research with a broader set of materials. It can also provide knowledge to assist in the design of better technologies and in developing policies and regulations to promote this.</p>","PeriodicalId":54628,"journal":{"name":"Personal and Ubiquitous Computing","volume":" ","pages":"1-11"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10105146/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9689367","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
