Using Multiple Sensors to Determine Posture  Lu Juncheng (James) Mentor:  Aiden Doherty Supervisor: Prof. Alan Smeaton
Introduction The problem of poor seated posture is increasing Classification of information from different  activities Finding out what type of sensor and data is more important to this project than the others.  The purpose of the project:
P roject Goals Determine the correct time to measure posture Plotting graphs from information Finding the difference  graphs by using classifier Using multiple sensors to get information SenseCam BodyMedia Heart rate monitor
SenseCam SenseCam is a wearable camera. Automatically captures images 2,500 images/day Sensors: PIR (Passive Infra Red) Accelerometer (motion) Light Temperature (ambient)
Affective Sensors BodyMedia device Motion Heat flux Skin temperature Galvanic skin response Heart rate monitor Chest strap measures user’s heart rate Watch is  receiver
Classifying User Activities
Research Challenges Input the information that is recorded from sensors Output the difference between data corresponding  to different  activities
