Suitability of commercial barometric pressure sensors to distinguish sitting and standing activities for wearable monitoring

Kamiar Aminian, Anisoara Ionescu, Julien Chardonnens, Fabien Massé, Alan Kevin Bourke

Despite its medical relevance, accurate recognition of sedentary (sitting and lying) and dynamic activities (e.g. standing and walking) remains challenging using a single wearable device. Currently, trunk-worn wearable systems can differentiate sitting fro ...
