Personal Health Device for the Remote and Autonomous Management of Parkinson’s Disease.
Fraunhofer AICOS is involved in the development of a personal health system that will be able to detect the activity and symptoms of people with Parkinson's Disease, and thus support disease management.
On a first level, the project will develop a portable monitoring device that can detect, in real-time, motor symptoms of the user, while evaluating On, Off and Dyskinesia states. On a second level, the intelligent treatment of data gathered by the monitoring system will allow the treating neurologist to have access to precise and reliable information based on which he or she may make better informed decisions about adequate treatments for the patient.
