Abstract

Nervous system diseases may affect a person's sensation, movement, and gland or organ functions. Various clinical scales have been developed to measure motor functions of patients, but most existing test methods are time-consuming, limiting their application for mass subjects. We present UbiSpoon, a pervasive system design for monitoring of activities of people potentially suffering nervous system diseases. Our design demonstrates the potential to be integrated into patients' everyday tasks. Also, we adopt an assisted data channel for the sake of segmenting activity sequence and identifying tremor type for further analysis.
