A modular framework for Ambient Health Monitoring

Ambient Health Monitoring is becoming increasingly important for supporting proactive self-monitoring as part of a healthy lifestyle and as an enabler of appropriate healthcare services in Ambient Assisted Living (AAL). However, the heterogeneity of available context sources and AAL infrastructure components hinders the design of holistic systems. In this paper, we describe a comprehensive modular system approach for integrating heterogeneous context sources, including: stationary sensor networks in AAL infrastructure; wireless medical device sensors; embedded mobile device sensors; as well as virtual sensors. We outline the potential use cases of the system by presenting a prototype lifelogging application for Android, which dynamically integrates several sensor types into a personal health record, with a special focus on activity recognition. The application also demonstrates the usage of gamification methods as a persuasive means of enhancing the intrinsic motivation of users towards a personalized healthy lifestyle.
