Call for Papers for the exp.at’19
Special Track STIMHA’19 “Smart Technologies and
Interactive Media for Health Applications”
Experiment@International Conference 2019, exp.at’19,
http://expat.org.pt/expat19/
exp.at’19 is the 5th event of the
conference series exp.at’xx. The conference will be held at the University of Madeira
(Funchal, Madeira Island, Portugal) on June 12-14, 2019, and it is a joint
organization of University of Porto and University of Coimbra with the
collaboration of University of Madeira. The conference will feature the
technical support of IEEE (IEEE Industrial Electronics Society and IEEE
Education Society) and the Portuguese Engineers Association.
STIMHA’19 aims to bring together
researchers and practitioners and highlight the latest developments in embedded
technologies, sensors and interactive systems in health applications. In the
last years, there has been increasing interest in the application in the health
domain of embedded systems, of novel sensing technologies together with
entertainment technologies and interactive media to visualize and interpret
health data, to allow individualized treatments, to facilitate learning
motivation, or to provide patients with enjoyable coaching systems for homework
exercises, just to name a few examples. For in-stance, the uses of
Gamification, Virtual Reality and Information and Communication Technologies
(ICTs) are exponentially increasing in the field of rehabilitation, mental
health and functional fitness, with clinical results that prove their
effectiveness. This special track invites authors to submit contributions on
concepts, applications, techniques or environments where smart systems and/or
interaction design play a central role in improving health practices at all
levels.
