DESCRIPTION: The physical activity of a free-living elderly individual is often assessed using continuous heart rate monitoring. A limitation of such a measure is that it provides little or no insight into the body segments used, types of movements, or even activities involved. Such kinematic information would be of considerable benefit to improving current intervention and rehabilitation programs. This Phase 1 grant will develop a system for continuously monitoring absolute and relative movements of multiple body segments. Currently available movement monitoring devices limit the ability to fully study a free-living individual. This is due to packaging dimensions that restrict the number of sensors that can be applied non-invasively and to limited data acquisition content. The low power, Creare wireless motion measurement module and its associated data collection and analysis module (2.5x2.5x1 cm), will allow clinicians and research scientists unprecedented flexibility in the selection of patients and placement of sensors, revealing details of physical activity and movement sequences. PROPOSED COMMERCIAL APPLICATION: The need for telemetric access to data in clinical as well as ambulatory settings is enormous. These are just some examples: 1) Wireless Hospital Room Monitoring; 2) Continuous Monitoring of Physical Activity; 3) Exercise Planning.

描述： 自由生活的老年人的体力活动通常是 使用连续心率监测进行评估。这种措施的局限性 是它很少或根本没有提供对所使用的身体部位、类型的了解 动作，甚至所涉及的活动。这样的运动学信息将是 对改善当前的干预和康复有很大好处 程序。第一阶段拨款将开发一个持续监控的系统 多个身体部分的绝对和相对运动。目前可用 运动监测设备限制了充分研究自由生活的能力 个人。这是由于包装尺寸限制了数量 可以非侵入性地应用并用于有限数据采集的传感器 内容。低功耗 Creare 无线运动测量模块及其 相关的数据收集和分析模块（2.5x2.5x1 cm），将允许 临床医生和研究科学家在选择方面具有前所未有的灵活性 患者的情况和传感器的放置，揭示身体活动的细节 和动作序列。 拟议的商业应用： 在临床和门诊环境中对数据进行遥测访问的需求是 巨大的。 这些只是一些例子： 1) 无线病房监控； 2）持续监测身体活动； 3）锻炼计划。
