Design for Accessible/Inclusive Sports and Rehabilitation with Assistive Technologies
A variety of relevant health and fitness parameters are now being captured via an ecosystem of consumer-oriented self-tracking devices, smartphone apps, and related services. Techniques from information science, sociology, psychology, design,statistics, machine learning, and data mining are applied to develop these systems.
These techniques provide new opportunities to enrich the understanding of individual and population health. Moreover, these systems can be applied not only for self-tracking of everyday behavior and lifestyle but also for rehabilitationmonitoring and self-diagnosis.
The Design for Sports, Learning, Assistive Technologies, and Rehabilitation track is the opportunity to discuss these topics from different points of view, considering various stakeholders and bringing projects designed for different purposesinto the discussion.
Topics:
- Rehabilitation technologies
- Robotics for rehabilitation
- Wearable sensing
- Embedded sensors
- AI/ML technologies
- Smart Prosthetics
- Healthcare design
- UCD & Co-design for health
- mHealth and eHealth
- Pervasive Health
- AAL solutions
- Extended Reality and AI
