Sommario/riassunto |
|
In recent years, many technologies for gait and posture assessments have emerged. Wearable sensors, active and passive in-house monitors, and many combinations thereof all promise to provide accurate measures of physical activity, gait, and posture parameters. Motivated by market projections for wearable technologies and driven by recent technological innovations in wearable sensors (MEMs, electronic textiles, wireless communications, etc.), wearable health/performance research is growing rapidly and has the potential to transform future healthcare from disease treatment to disease prevention. The objective of this Special Issue is to address and disseminate the latest gait, posture, and activity monitoring systems as well as various mathematical models/methods that characterize mobility functions. This Special Issue focuses on wearable monitoring systems and physical sensors, and its mathematical models can be utilized in varied environments under varied conditions to monitor health and performance |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
Belong is a look at how art, music and culture survive in places that much of the world only associates with war, poverty and civil strife - like the Bob Marley cover band in Beirut or the architect / artist in Tel Aviv who wanted to incorporate the idea of destruction into new buildings. Over the years, Jennifer Morton and her cameramen have been dragged out of a club by riot police in Milan, tracked down and questioned in Belfast, witnessed spirit possession in Senegal, and abandoned on the side of the road by more than one driver. |
