“…The electronics industry quickly reacted to the consumers’ expectations, increasing the availability and diversity of new electronic sensors specially conceived for integration in the second generation of these devices [ 44 ]. Besides the “classical” MeMs-based accelerometers, inertial units (integrating triaxial magnetometers, gyroscopes and accelerometers), pulse sensors and biopotential front-ends developed by the main industry stakeholders, enabling the design and commercialization of advanced experimental wearable devices [ 45 ] intended for sampling biosignals at higher frequencies with better resolution [ 46 ].…”

“…As happened previously with the spread of smartphone use, after the introduction of these advanced devices, research was then oriented toward the development of health care solutions [ 46 , 54 , 55 ]. Initially, most of them were centered on clinical assessment of chronic conditions [ 56 ] and neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s disease [ 45 , 57 , 58 , 59 ] or Multiple Sclerosis [ 60 , 61 , 62 , 63 , 64 , 65 , 66 ].…”

The increasingly ageing population and the tendency to live alone have led science and engineering researchers to search for health care solutions. In the COVID 19 pandemic, the elderly have been seriously affected in addition to suffering from isolation and its associated and psychological consequences. This paper provides an overview of the RobWell (Robotic-based Well-Being Monitoring and Coaching System for the Elderly in their Daily Activities) system. It is a system focused on the field of artificial intelligence for mood prediction and coaching. This paper presents a general overview of the initially proposed system as well as the preliminary results related to the home automation subsystem, autonomous robot navigation and mood estimation through machine learning prior to the final system integration, which will be discussed in future works. The main goal is to improve their mental well-being during their daily household activities. The system is composed of ambient intelligence with intelligent sensors, actuators and a robotic platform that interacts with the user. A test smart home system was set up in which the sensors, actuators and robotic platform were integrated and tested. For artificial intelligence applied to mood prediction, we used machine learning to classify several physiological signals into different moods. In robotics, it was concluded that the ROS autonomous navigation stack and its autodocking algorithm were not reliable enough for this task, while the robot’s autonomy was sufficient. Semantic navigation, artificial intelligence and computer vision alternatives are being sought.

Zusammenfassung Hintergrund Über den Einsatz direkter Messmethoden zur Erfassung körperlicher Aktivität bei Erwachsenen in Deutschland ist bislang wenig bekannt. Ziel Ziel der Studie ist die Beschreibung der Adhärenz und die Analyse individueller Determinanten, ein Akzelerometer über 7 Tage zu tragen. Material und Methoden In einem Einkaufszentrum wurden 365 Personen (40 bis 75 Jahre) für eine 7‑tägige Aufzeichnung ihrer körperlichen Aktivität gewonnen. Von diesen hatten 231 (63,3 %) das Gerät täglich mindestens 10 h getragen. Ergebnisse Teilnehmende in Partnerschaft trugen das Akzelerometer mit höherer Wahrscheinlichkeit entsprechend der Anweisung verglichen mit jenen ohne Partnerschaft. Schlechtere subjektive Gesundheit war mit einer geringeren Einhaltung der Anweisungen das Akzelerometer zu tragen assoziiert. Diskussion Um möglichst valide Daten über Umfang und Intensität körperlicher Aktivität zu erhalten, sollten Menschen ohne Partner und solche mit schlechterer subjektiver Gesundheit über den Tragezeitraum des Gerätes hinweg motiviert werden, es regelmäßig zu tragen.

“…In this sense, studies carried out within the context of PE have endorsed that ICTs are advantageous in aspects such as increased motivation, facilitating feedback in learning, are applicable to different physical activities, and facilitate autonomy in their practice, among others [28,29]. In this sense, Schwartz and Baca [22] mention that physical activity apps are based on behavioral theory and use gamification elements to ensure the success of the activity, where personal goals and specific comments are established to help carry out the activities, thus increasing motivation. There are also specific applications used in PE to teach, learn, innovate, or research in educational environments that can be used to manage the PE classroom, create ad hoc curricular materials, make educational plans and programs, monitor technical performance, sports, and record activities, among others functions [30].…”

“…A motivating element to promote physical activity may be in the use of sports mobile applications. It is worth mentioning the multitude of applications for assisting in the practice of physical activity that we find today on our smart devices, and that are increasingly popular, have the main function of collecting data such as: steps, route and frequency, and daily physical activity, while also allowing this information to be shared with other people [22]. This can be a fundamental tool to control or influence the levels of physical activity that teenagers perform daily [23,24].…”

Mobile telephony has developed exponentially, offering a multitude of services that could be optimal for the educational field of physical and sports activity (PSA). The objective of this research was to analyze the use of smartphone by 40 Spanish teenagers and assess the degree of satisfaction of the Polar Beat application within the subject of physical education in high school. The instruments used were two quantitative questionnaires and the data were analyzed with the statistical package SPSS 24.0. The teenagers recognized that they use the smartphone for instant messaging, telephone calls and downloads of games and tunes. The Polar Beat application in physical education classes has allowed them a better understanding of the content developed; the students affirmed that their motivation towards PSA increased with the knowledge and use of the Polar Beat app and that smartphones are innovative and effective tools. With all this, the mobile phone could be an educational tool that awakens interest in teenagers and teachers.
