Background: In recent years, the population structure in Taiwan has changed so dramatically. Based on concerns of social welfare issues, Taiwanese government began to seek principles for assessment of disability. After seven years of carefully evaluation, the World Health Organization's International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (Abbreviated to ICF) is officially adopted as Taiwan's assessment standard while most of the assessment procedures of ICF are sophisticated, and time consuming. In this paper, we propose a sensor based decision supporting system for ICF. Our prototype system aims to reduce the burden of medical staffs, and to assist subjects to perform the assessments.
