Diet tracking via self-reports or manual taking of meal photos might be difficult, time-consuming, and discouraging, especially for children, which limits the potential of long-term dietary assessment. We present the design and development of a proof of concept of an automated and unobtrusive system for diet tracking integrating: a) a social robot programmed to automatically capture photos of food...
Cardiac Rehabilitation (CR) can significantly improve mortality and morbidity rates from Cardiovascular Diseases (CVD). Nevertheless, traditional CR is diminished by low subsequent adherence rates. Thus, in this paper, an e-Health technological module for human motion analysis and user modelling is proposed, in order to address the requirements of unsupervised, tele-rehabilitation systems for CVD,...
Despite their potential for improving health outcomes, mobile-based home monitoring systems for heart failure have not yet been taken up widely by the patients and providers.To design and iteratively move towards a personalised mobile health monitoring system for patients living with heart failure, according to their health care and usability needs.We present an iterative approach to refining a remote...
Heart failure is a common chronic condition requiring frequent attention and ongoing provision of healthcare services. In this context we present a personalized mobile-based home monitoring system aiming to support heart failure patients in daily self-monitoring of their condition. An Internet-linked tablet computer and various portable and wearable sensing devices are employed in order to monitor...
A flexible, scaleable and cost-effective medical telemetry system is described for monitoring sleep-related disorders in the home environment. The system was designed and built for real-time data acquisition and processing, allowing for additional use in intensive care unit scenarios where rapid medical response is required in case of emergency. It comprises a wearable body area network of Zigbee-compatible...
