DESCRIPTION:The ageing phenomena requires the development in the near futur
 e of new systems and services that will provide healthcare quality with co
 sts optimization. In this context the lecture will present a set of unobtr
 usive sensing solutions for health status and daily activity monitoring of
  elderly people or patients under physical rehabilitation process. Vital s
 ignals acquisition and processing by sensing modules embedded in clothes a
 nd/or accessories and instrumented walking aid equipment will be part of t
 he presentation. The strength and drawbacks of different solutions for car
 diac and respiratory assessment will be discussed special attention will b
 e granted to the ballistocardiography and radar ballistocardiography imple
 mentations but also to other sensing solutions cardiac assessment.\n\nMoto
 r activity monitoring for normal users but also for users under physical r
 ehabilitation represent an important field of research. Novel solutions fo
 r motions assessment based on microwave radar motion sensor\, MEMS inertia
 l sensors associated with walking aids used in gait rehabilitation process
  for objective evaluation of applied rehabilitation plan will be presented
  together appropriate signal processing techniques. Elements of the electr
 onic health record as so as the interaction between user and the mixed rea
 lity scenarios developed for physical therapy are also included in the tal
 k. Unobtrusive sensing solution integration with virtual reality serious g
 ames for physical rehabilitation will be considered as so as several eleme
 nts concerning the usage of thermography to evaluate the physical rehabili
 tation sessions effectiveness.\n\nCo-sponsored by: CI/SMC Joint Chapter\n\
