在过去的十年中，可穿戴技术已经引起了研究人员和临床医生的兴趣[1]。开发可穿戴传感器和系统的动机是由于在家庭和社区环境中对个人进行长期监测所带来的巨大好处。例如，在图1中，受平衡障碍影响的个体在健身房或临床中心（例如，进行平衡训练）。在这里，运动依从性和性能通过连接到手腕和脚踝的运动传感器进行监测：与平行杆设置的交互通过跟踪手部运动的传感手套捕获，并且对运动的生理反应通过使用能够监测心率和呼吸率的胸带收集。受试者在他/她的口袋中携带手机，其用作数据记录器（即，蜂窝电话与位于身体上的传感器“对话”），并作为远程访问受试者数据的网关。通过手机网络或无线局域网访问受试者的数据。然后，数据通过互联网中继到急救人员（例如，救护车服务），家庭成员或护理人员，以及临床人员（例如，受试者的初级保健医生），以响应紧急情况，评估受试者的状态，并计划临床干预。
O ver the past decade, wearable technology has gained the interest of researchers and clinicians [1]. The motivation for the development of wearable sensors and systems is due to the tremendous benefits that could be associated with long-term monitoring of individuals in the home and community settings. For example, in Figure 1, an individual affected by a balance disorder is monitored while at the gym or a clinical center (e.g., undergoing balance training). Here, exercise compliance and performance are monitored via motion sensors attached to the wrists and ankles: the interaction with a parallelbar setup is captured by sensorized gloves that track hand movements, and physiological responses to the exercise are gathered using a chest strap that enables monitoring of heart rate and respiratory rate. The subject carries a cell phone in his/her pocket, which serves as data logger (i.e., the cell phone ‘‘talks’’ to the sensors positioned on the body) and as a gateway for remote access to the subject’s data. Access to the subject’s data is achieved via a cell phone network or via a wireless local area network. Data are then relayed via the Internet to emergency personnel (e.g., an ambulance service), a family member or caregiver, and clinical personnel (e.g., the subject’s primary care physician) as needed to respond to emergency situations, assess the subject’s status, and plan clinical interventions.
