商品描述

This book reports on an inclusive design project aimed at developing IoT-based wearable devices for special populations. Specifically, it covers the design, the implementation and testing of a smart mHealth system that uses sensory cues to monitor and train the gait and posture of people with Parkinson's disease. It presents a user-centred strategy to better involve the users in defining the most suitable type of sensory cues and their combination, and in the design of the user interface, at the purpose of developing a gait tutoring system that better fits users' needs and requirements. All in all, this book offers extensive information on the state-of-the-art in the design and testing of innovative user-centred mHealth systems. Giving a particular attention to the explanation of the tools and methodological choices, it provides readers with a timely reference guide to understand and deal with complex inclusive design projects.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書報告了一個包容性設計專案，旨在為特殊族群開發基於物聯網的可穿戴設備。具體而言，它涵蓋了一個智能移動健康系統的設計、實施和測試，該系統利用感官提示來監測和訓練帕金森病患者的步態和姿勢。書中提出了一種以使用者為中心的策略，以更好地讓使用者參與定義最合適的感官提示類型及其組合，並在用戶界面的設計中考量，以開發出更符合使用者需求和要求的步態輔導系統。總的來說，本書提供了有關創新以使用者為中心的移動健康系統設計和測試的最新資訊。特別關注工具和方法選擇的解釋，為讀者提供了一本及時的參考指南，以理解和處理複雜的包容性設計專案。
