Instrumented shoes for activity classification in the elderly

Kamiar Aminian, Anisoara Ionescu, Christopher Moufawad El Achkar

Quantifying daily physical activity in older adults can provide relevant monitoring and diagnostic information about risk of fall and frailty. In this study, we introduce instrumented shoes capable of recording movement and foot loading data unobtrusively ...

Physical Behavior in Older Persons during Daily Life: Insights from Instrumented Shoes

Kamiar Aminian, Anisoara Ionescu, Christopher Moufawad El Achkar

Activity level and gait parameters during daily life are important indicators for clinicians because they can provide critical insights into modifications of mobility and function over time. Wearable activity monitoring has been gaining momentum in daily l ...

Instrumented shoes for daily activity monitoring in healthy and at risk populations

Christopher Moufawad El Achkar

Daily activity reflects the health status of an individual. Ageing and disease drastically affect all dimensions of mobility, from the number of active bouts to their duration and intensity. Performing less activity leads to muscle deterioration and furthe ...

Physical activity recognition via minimal in-shoes force sensor configuration

Kamiar Aminian, Arash Arami, Fabien Massé, Christopher Moufawad El Achkar

We propose a new minimal wearable system and a classifier for physical activity recognition. The configuration is solely based on two force sensors placed anteriorly and posteriorly under the feet. To find the optimal sensor configuration, we estimated the ...
