Improvement of Life Quality, and Geriatric Study
|
The aging population in the U.S. presents a serious health problem. In general the fitness and functional level
deteriorate with aging, and additional monitoring and assistance becomes
necessary. IDEEA can be an ideal tool as an accurate and handy behavior monitor
and a device for monitoring physical performance and fitness/wellness for
seniors or other groups that need special care. Its capability for recording
each move, each step of a person continuously for multiple days enables a
researcher to identify exactly when and what happened right before a person
fell on ground. Finding how long it takes to get up from bed or the impact of
sleeping aid on the quality of sleep as well as body stance and balance could
also be very important.

IDEEA is well suited for many emerging and fast growing researches. It provides information regarding the type, duration,
frequency, and intensity of daily physical activity and the quality of life
(such as sleep time, sleep quality, sit time, distance traveled, and stairs
climbed. Physical activity, behavior, and life quality assessment of
specific groups can also benefit significantly from the device and analysis
system.

IDEEA is what researchers have been waiting for decades! It is the most
powerful and accurate device ever of its kind. The data analysis and
result presentation is astounding.

|
|
The birth of IDEEA creates a new era for studies in physical activity,
behavior and fitness. Truly remarkable!
