Abstract

We present an educational and research kit to support hands-on teaching and experience of real-time activity or gesture recognition from on-body sensors. The kit is comprised of: wireless wearable sensor nodes for motion and ECG sensing; software infrastructure for synchronized data acquisition from multiple sensors, data visualization, signal alignment, and synchronized signal/video exploration; algorithm demonstration and education software with a hidden Markov model-based activity recognition system and a low-latency gesture recognition for a platform game; support hardware for the annotation of user activities from a wireless keypad, and for prototyping of other wireless sensor nodes. All hardware and software is open-source.
