Home-based Senior Fitness Test measurement system using collaborative inertial and depth sensors. Academic Article

abstract

• This paper presents a home-based Senior Fitness Test (SFT) measurement system by using an inertial sensor and a depth camera in a collaborative way. The depth camera is used to monitor the correct pose of a subject for a fitness test and any deviation from the correct pose while the inertial sensor is used to measure the number of a fitness test action performed by the subject within the time duration specified by the fitness protocol. The results indicate that this collaborative approach leads to high success rates in providing the SFT measurements under realistic conditions.
