Methode : Op basis van gedragsveranderingstheoriëen is een smartphone app ontwikkeld. De app motiveert de gebruiker om te bewegen (wandelen, hardlopen) door het ondersteunen bij het stellen van doelen [1], het aanbieden van locatie specifieke instructionele-(beweeginstructies in video) en motivationele-feedback …

We present a novel hierarchical model for human activity recognition. In contrast with approaches that successively recognize actions and activities, our approach jointly models actions and activities in a unified framework, and their labels are simultaneously predicted. The model is embedded with a …

This paper describes the Care4Balance (C4B) system for better facilitating communication and task coordination between formal and informal caregivers, and older adults as care receivers. Field-tests with older adults (n=3) and user studies (n=9) were conducted to evaluate the system and the perceived …

In this paper, we address the problem of people detection and tracking in crowded scenes using range cameras. We propose a new method for people detection and localisation based on the combination of background modelling and template matching. The method uses an adaptive background model in the range …

Met de toepassing van sensoren in de zorg zal het aantal data explosief toenemen. Maar kunnen we die data ook op een goede manier verwerken? Hoe vindt de integratie plaats? En hoe staat het met de gebruiksvriendelijkheid? Eén van de struikelblokken, zegt Ben Kröse, is de consistentie van data. In theorie …

Vertical farming is a promising new technology for increasing crop yields per square meter. However, little research has been done so far in people's perception of this technology. The aim of this project was to gain a better understanding of consumers' attitude on small scale vertical farming at home. …

We present a method for measuring gait velocity using data from an existing ambient sensor network. Gait velocity is an important predictor of fall risk and functional health. In contrast to other approaches that use specific sensors or sensor configurations our method imposes no constraints on the elderly. …
