Ongoing research
Validation and implementation of a wearable sensor system in clothing to detect early signs of stress (MASQUE-2)
In a previous research project (MASQUE), an initial version of a sensor-enabled garment (wearable) was developed to help detect stress early in people with dementia or intellectual disabilities. This wearable is now being further developed, validated, and implemented in long-term care for people with dementia and intellectual disabilities, in collaboration with clients, informal caregivers, healthcare providers, and other experts.
