It runs in the background while you carry about your exercise or just casual walking , then sends your stats to either a custom Google Map or your Google Docs account.

More useful, though, is being able to send lists of tasks from the mobile phone to the watch, which appear like notifications.

The top option is 'Theme' - this is where you can choose between 'Light' and 'Dark'.

It's a calculator app you can use on your wrist, so no more reaching into your pocket for a quick calculation. At the conference, Google also demonstrated the fruits of a new single sign-on authentication technology, called the Cross-Platform Single Sign-On. On older Wear devices, meanwhile, Google Fit shows up on your watch as soon as you've installed the app on your phone. Read our affiliate link policy for more details.

However, the emerging literature points to several socio-ethical challenges which may act as inhibitors to the adoption in the minds of the consumers. We also observe a paucity of research focusing on determinants of adoption and use of AI- based CAs in mental healthcare. In this setting, this study aims to understand the factors influencing the adoption and use of Intelligent CAs in mental healthcare by examining the perceptions of actual users. Method: The study followed a qualitative approach based on netnography and used a rigorous iterative thematic analysis of publicly available user reviews of popular mental health chatbots to develop a comprehensive framework of factors influencing the user’s decision to adopt mental healthcare CA. Results: We developed a comprehensive thematic map comprising of four main themes, namely, perceived risk, perceived benefits, trust, and perceived anthropomorphism, along with its 12 constituent subthemes that provides a visualization of the factors that govern the user’s adoption and use of mental healthcare CA.

  • CHAPTER 2 THEORETICAL FOUNDATION 2.1 Android
    CHAPTER 2 THEORETICAL FOUNDATION 2.1 Android Technology 2.1.1 History In October 2003, a team of four technology expert in Palo Alto, California joined as a group to establish Android Inc. Andy Rubin (Co-founder of Danger, Inc.), Rich Miner (Co-founder of Wildfire Communication, Inc.), Nick Sears (Ex-VP at T-Mobile) and Chris White (head design and interface development at WebTV) [6] [7] worked to create an operating system for mobile devices that are aware of both user’s location and their personal preferences. At first, Android was meant to be implemented on digital camera devices, however the company recognized that cellular phones have higher demand of sale [7]. In August 2005, As Android gain popularity on mobile phones user, Google decide to acquired Android for an undisclosed price which is estimated to be about $50 million, since then the Google Mobile Division was born [7] [8]. On 5th November 2007, Google announced the Open Handset Alliance (OHA), an association of technology manufacturers that would work together to create open mobile device standards [7]. At the outset, 34 companies were involved on the association that includes wireless telecommunications providers(T-Mobile), mobile handset makers (Motorola, HTC, LG, and Samsung) and chipset makers (Texas Instruments, Qualcomm) [7]. This announcement than indicates that Android would be much different from the iPhone system in that it would not be limited to single mobile device manufactures [7]. Finally, in September 2008, T-Mobile announced the T-Mobile G1 as the first smartphone that uses Android Operating System. A month later, Google released the Android 1.0 8 source code which made it available to anyone [8].

  • Collecting Activity Data Using the Open Mhealth Platform an Exploratory Study on Integrating Objective Data with Sport Monitoring Systems
    Collecting activity data using the Open mHealth platform An exploratory study on integrating objective data with sport monitoring systems Daniel Gynnild-Johnsen , Lars-Erik Holte Master’s Thesis Spring 2017 Collecting activity data using the Open mHealth platform Daniel Gynnild-Johnsen Lars-Erik Holte May 2, 2017 Abstract Football players works together as a unit to perform on an elite competi- tive level, and the most minor abnormalities can determine the outcome of a match. Success can often be the result of healthy, uninjured and rejuve- nated players working together as a collective. Even though it is impossible to control all outcomes and scenarios, the risk of failure might be mini- mized by monitoring players closely on an individual level. If we monitor players over a longer period of time we might discover patterns or abnor- malities in their training. This information can be used to avoid multiple scenarios related to fatigue, injuries and overtraining. In this thesis we present a proof of concept for expanding an existing self- reporting monitoring system called pmSys, and look at how football teams and players can utilize modern technology like phones and wearable de- vices to capture objective data. This system will collect and store the data, which can be processed into useful visualised feedback, and help a team to evaluate their players. This way the coaches can make mitigating mea- sures to improve certain aspect that might be lacking on a player or team level. By eliminating the use of pen and paper, pmSys introduces a simpler way of reporting the players’ health status.

    Access & Explore: Using Environmental Control in the Classroom…and more! Liz Persaud and Ben Jacobs, Tools for Life Trey Quinn, Cambridge High School With contributions from Carolyn Phillips, Martha Rust, and Ben Satterfield IDEAS June 4, 2015 at 10:00 AM www.gatfl.gatech.edu Session Presenters Ben Jacobs Accommodations Specialist Tools for Life [email protected] Liz Persaud Training and Outreach Coordinator Tools for Life [email protected] Trey Quinn Rising Sophmore Cambridge High School [email protected] Session Description • The move from classroom to real life can be a major transition. Students go from being surrounded by their teachers, peers and helpers regularly, to being by themselves more often and needing to learn strategies for independence. • Creating an environment in the classroom that enables learning independence can help ease the transition process. • In this session, presenters will discuss affordable environmental control solutions that can be implemented in the classroom and then used to make the transition process into postsecondary and/or community living a smooth process. • Multiple environmental control options and options for interacting with the environment (voice, computer, tablet, phone) will be covered. Objectives At the end of this session, participants (you) will be able to: 1. List 3 environmental control protocols and their effectiveness. 2. Assess and implement solutions for students to interact with their environment. 3. Identify 3 affordable solutions to implement in the classroom.
