Abstract

This paper introduced the real-time mobile health system to measure the walking balance of individuals with mild traumatic brain injury using a smartwatch and cloud service. We used three sensors in the smartwatch, including accelerometer, gyroscope and magnetometer. The balance data is directly sent to the cloud server, where researchers manage the data, set thresholds and enable real-time interactive actions such as, sending a warning message.
