Is Complexity of Daily Activity Associated with Physical Function and Life Space Mobility among Older Adults?
2022
Purpose Information about mobility, and physical function may be encoded in the complexity of daily activity pattern. Therefore, daily activity pattern complexity metrics could provide novel insight regarding the relationship between daily activity behaviour and health. The purpose of the present study was to examine the association between the complexity of daily activity behaviour, and mobility and physical function among community-dwelling older adults aged 75, 80, and 85 years-of-age. Methods A total of 309 participants wore accelerometers concurrently on the thigh and the trunk for at least 3 consecutive days. Five activity states (lying, sitting, standing, walking, or activity other t…
Validity of the Wrist-Worn Polar Vantage V2 to Measure Heart Rate and Heart Rate Variability at Rest
2021
Heart rate (HR) and heart rate variability (HRV) can be monitored with wearable devices throughout the day. Resting HRV in particular, reflecting cardiac parasympathetic activity, has been proposed to be a useful marker in the monitoring of health and recovery from training. This study examined the validity of the wrist-based photoplethysmography (PPG) method to measure HR and HRV at rest. Recreationally endurance-trained participants recorded pulse-to-pulse (PP) and RR intervals simultaneously with a PPG-based watch and reference heart rate sensor (HRS) at a laboratory in a supine position (n = 39; 5-min recording) and at home during sleep (n = 29; 4-h recording). In addition, analyses wer…
Rifle and aiming point accelerations do not differ between the most and least accurate shots in biathlon shooting within an athlete
2023
Abstract Study aim: As studies from shooting disciplines other than biathlon have observed associations between weapon accelerations and shooting performance, this study investigated whether accelerations of the rifle stock and aiming point (the point on the target where the rifle is aimed at) are associated with shooting performance, and differences in rifle and aiming point accelerations between the most and least accurate shots. Further, associations between rifle and aiming point accelerations were studied. Materials and methods: Shooting performance (HitDist, hit point distance from the center of the target) along with rifle and aiming point accelerations were measured from nine biathl…

Dog behaviour classification with movement sensors placed on the harness and the collar
2021
Dog owners’ understanding of the daily behaviour of their dogs may be enhanced by movement measurements that can detect repeatable dog behaviour, such as levels of daily activity and rest as well as their changes. The aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of supervised machine learning methods utilising accelerometer and gyroscope data provided by wearable movement sensors in classification of seven typical dog activities in a semi-controlled test situation. Forty-five middle to large sized dogs participated in the study. Two sensor devices were attached to each dog, one on the back of the dog in a harness and one on the neck collar. Altogether 54 features were extracted from th…
Uutisia ranteessa? : älykellojen soveltuvuus journalismiin. Loppuraportti
2016
Tämän tutkimushankkeen päätarkoituksena oli selvittää älykellojen soveltuvuus journalismiin, sen uutena sisällönjulkaisupaikkana sekä työvälineenä. Keskeisinä tiedonhankinnan menetelminä olivat journalistisen ja tutkimuksellisen aineiston jatkuva monitorointi, asiantuntijahaastattelut (N=6) sekä älykellojen testaus koeryhmien avulla. Vähintään kuukauden mittaisen testijakson teki yhteensä yhdeksän testaajaa. Tutkimuksen keskeisenä tuloksena oli, että älykellot eivät ole ainakaan vielä vuonna 2016 nousseet uudeksi varteenotettavaksi viestinnän laitekategoriaksi eivätkä ne siten ole korvaamassa esimerkiksi älypuhelimia. Suurin hyöty älykelloista on breaking news -uutistilanteissa, jolloin uut…
Suomen urheilu- ja hyvinvointiteknologia-ala urheilukulttuurin muutosten ilmentäjänä
2020
Nykypäivänä urheilu- ja hyvinvointiteknologiayritykset muodostavat kansainvälisesti merkittävän kokoluokan markkinan. Alan yritykset ovat keskittyneet liiketoiminnassaan esimerkiksi anturi- ja sensoriteknologioiden tarjoamiin mahdollisuuksiin, älypuhelinsovelluksiin ja tietokoneohjelmistoihin sekä eleohjaukseen, digitaalisiin pintoihin ja tekoälyyn perustuviin liikkumisympäristöihin. Tässä tutkimuksessa selvitetään, mitkä makrotason muutosajurit ovat tehneet toimialasta Suomessa sellaisen kuin se tänä päivänä on. Samalla luodaan katsaus suomalaisten urheilu- ja hyvinvointiteknologia-alan yritysten ominaispiirteisiin. peerReviewed
The Internet of Things for Applications in Wearable Technology
2022
The advent of the Internet of Things (IoT) era has propelled the development of wearable technology. Wearable devices are widely used in medical, healthcare, sports, and safety applications, bringing more convenience to the living environment. Wearable devices can be worn on the body, collect body data using sensors, and process the collected data to obtain valuable information. IoT enables devices to connect and exchange and transmit data. Wearable devices in IoT can collect data for analysis and automatically adjust wearable device functions by connecting the obtained information to other devices. In this paper, we collect and organize articles on wearable devices used in IoT from 2017 to…
