Book ChapterDOI
Activity Recognition for Everyday Life on Mobile Phones
TL;DR: The DiaTrace application developed the method and algorithm to detect activities like walking, jumping, running, cycling or car driving and calculates the consumed calories over the day, shares activity progress with friends or family and might deliver details about different kinds of transportation during a business trip.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Exploring vibrotactile feedback on the body and foot for the purpose of pedestrian navigation
TL;DR: It is found that urban space can be very diverse, and ambiguous and therefore a vibrotactile system cannot completely replace common path finding systems for pedestrians, and therefore such a system to be applied complementary as an assistive technology is envisioned.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
EarFieldSensing: A Novel In-Ear Electric Field Sensing to Enrich Wearable Gesture Input through Facial Expressions
TL;DR: This developed wearable fine-tuned electric field sensing employs differential amplification to effectively cancel out environmental noise while still being sensitive towards small facial-movement-related electric field changes and artifacts from ear canal deformations.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Ambient interaction by smart watches
TL;DR: This work introduces a concept of non-obtrusive interaction with smart watches by using physical activity recognition and presents a prototype application of maintenance assistance and shows possible applications for ambient assistant living environments.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
A study on measuring heart- and respiration-rate via wrist-worn accelerometer-based seismocardiography (SCG) in comparison to commonly applied technologies
TL;DR: It is confirmed that SCG/BCD with a wrist-worn accelerometer also provides accurate vital parameters, and the detection of HR is non-significantly different to the gold standard.
