With the soaring adoption of in-ear wearables, the research community has started investigating suitable in-ear heart rate (HR) detection systems. HR is a key physiological marker of cardiovascular health and physical fitness. Continuous and reliable HR monitoring with wearable devices has therefore gained increasing attention in recent years. Existing HR detection systems in wearables mainly rely...Show More
Monitoring human behavior and health status using mobile devices, a.k.a. Mobile Health, has gained increasing attention from both academia and industry in recent years. It allows imperceptible health tracking from the users and remote health management from the healthcare service providers. Head-worn devices, such as earbuds, glasses, and brain–computer interfaces, exhibit great potential for mobi...Show More
Earables are now pervasive, and their established purpose, ergonomy, and noninvasive interaction uncover exciting opportunities for sensing and healthcare research. However, it is critical to understand and characterize sensory measurements’ accuracy in earables impacting healthcare decisions. We report a systematic characterization of in-ear photoplethysmography (PPG) in measuring vital signs: he...Show More
Earables (in-ear wearables) are a new frontier in wearables. Acting both as leisure devices, providing personal audio, as well as sensing platforms, earables could collect sensor data for the upper part of the body, subject to fewer vibrations and random movement variations than the lower parts of the body, due to inherent damping in the musculoskeletal system. These data may enable application do...Show More
Mobile autonomous systems are supposed to deeply impact in manufacturing, space exploration, rescue, defense, transportation, and everyday life. Autonomous air-ground vehicles, for example, will become normal tools in the next few years, providing a natural platform for distributed artificial intelligence applications including, for example, disaster rescue and recovery, area surveying, autonomous...Show More
