Abstract

This paper provides an overview of current research and open problems in sensor-based mobility analysis. It is focused on geriatric assessment tests and the idea to provide easier and more objective results by using sensor technologies. A lot of research has been done in the field of measuring personal movement/mobility by technical approaches but there are few developments to measure a complete geriatric assessment test. Such automated tests can very likely offer more accurate, reliable and objective results than currently used methods. Additionally, those tests may reduce costs in public health systems as well as set standards for comparability of the tests. New sensor technologies and initiatives for data standardization in health processes offer increased possibilities in system development. This paper will highlight some open problems that still exist to bring automated mobility assessment tests into pervasive clinical and domestic use.
