Multimodal Wearable Sensors to Measure Gait and Voice.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Traditional measurement systems utilized in clinical trials are limited because they are episodic and thus cannot capture the day-to-day fluctuations and longitudinal changes that frequently affect patients across different therapeutic areas.

Objectives

The aim of this study was to collect and evaluate data from multiple devices, including wearable sensors, and compare them to standard lab-based instruments across multiple domains of daily tasks.

Methods

Healthy volunteers aged 18-65 years were recruited for a 1-h study to collect and assess data from wearable sensors. They performed walking tasks on a gait mat while instrumented with a watch, phone, and sensor insoles as well as several speech tasks on multiple recording devices.
