Previously a microprocessor-based device, called Activity Analyzer with voice-Guidance for Independent Living Environments (AAGILE), was developed. The present project is focused on the implementation of AAGILE on a mobile platform that utilizes smartphone hardware such as the accelerometer and voice recording. The resulting app monitors and responds to user physical activity and inactivity; recorded voice messages will initiate to encourage exercise and/or provide instructions. This project has resulted in a cost-effective AAGILE system intended for increasing the level of activity for the older adults population.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
