SECTION 1: DESCRIPTION OF THE YOUNG PERSONPatrick is a seven-year old Irish boy who has autism and the associated behaviours of delayed social and communication skills. Patrick has three older siblings, a sister who is nine-years old and two brothers who are eleven and thirteen years old respectively. He has a more engaging relationship with his sister than his brothers and his mother believes this is due to his sister being more patient with Patrick favouring the repetition of tasks over and over again. Patrick's father works as an estate agent selling houses in the main town; his mother does not work. Patrick's mother takes him to school every morning and collects him at the end of each day.Patrick attends the i-PLAY (Inclusive Play and Leisure Activities for Youth) programme at the local University once a week over a ten-week period. This programme is designed for children, youth, and young adults with special needs to have an opportunity to play and interact socially with peers. Participants are engaged in a range of physical activities (e.g., dance and games) and each is paired with 3 rd year pre-service physical education teachers to ensure the young person can receive individual attention, support, and encouragement. The focus of i-Play is promoting physical activity for young people and incorporating it into their daily lives (i.e., at school, after school, and at home).

“…Many studies suggest that auditory [11][12][13][14] and visual cues [13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26] can improve a PwP's gait performance, especially during FOG. Rubinstein et al [14], observed that in the presence of an external "movement trigger" (i.e., a sensory cue), a patient's selfpaced actions such as walking, can be significantly improved; a phenomenon, known as "kinesia paradoxica".…”

Parkinson's is a neurodegenerative condition associated with several motor symptoms including tremors and slowness of movement. Freezing of gait (FOG); the sensation of one's feet being "glued" to the floor, is one of the most debilitating symptoms associated with advanced Parkinson's. FOG not only contributes to falls and related injuries, but also compromises quality of life as people often avoid engaging in functional daily activities both inside and outside the home. In the current study, we describe a novel system designed to detect FOG and falling in people with Parkinson's (PwP) as well as monitoring and improving their mobility using laser-based visual cues cast by an automated laser system. The system utilizes a RGB-D sensor based on Microsoft Kinect v2 and a laser casting system consisting of two servo motors and an Arduino microcontroller. This system was evaluated by 15 PwP with FOG. Here, we present details of the system along with a summary of feedback provided by PwP. Despite limitations regarding its outdoor use, feedback was very positive in terms of domestic usability and convenience, where 12/15 PwP showed interest in installing and using the system at their homes. Implications for Rehabilitation Providing an automatic and remotely manageable monitoring system for PwP gait analysis and fall detection. Providing an automatic, unobtrusive and dynamic visual cue system for PwP based on laser line projection. Gathering feedback from PwP about the practical usage of the implemented system through focus group events.
