Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Readiness of using a measuring box for elderly people for autonomous mobility measurement. Over a period of 6 months, the subjects are asked to visit the measurement box once a month and to carry out two mobility tests (Timed-UP and Go, 5-Time Chair Rise Test) without supervision, only through the measuring box itself. In addition to the number and frequency of visits, the data collected in the measuring box are evaluated, such as inertial measurement units via sensor belt, depth image camera and aTUG chair. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Early detection of functional decline by using both, a clinical and sensor-based follow-up documentation of the Timed-Up on Go, Short Physical Performance Battery, Stair Climb Power Test and 6Min Walking Test over a six months period | — |
