abstract: ABSTRACT This study evaluated the LoseIt Smart Phone app by Fit Now Inc. for nutritional quality among users during an 8 week behavioral modification weight loss protocol. All participants owned smart phones and were cluster randomized to either a control group using paper and pencil record keeping, a memo group using a memo function on their smart phones, or the LoseIt app group which was composed of the participants who owned iPhones. Thirty one participants completed the study protocol: 10 participants from the LoseIt app group, 10 participants from the memo group, and 11 participants from the paper and pencil group. Food records were analyzed using Food Processor by ESHA and the nutritional quality was scored using the Healthy Eating Index - 2005 (HEI-2005). Scores were compared using One-Way ANOVA with no significant changes in any category across all groups. Non-parametric statistics were then used to determine changes between combined memo and paper and pencil groups and the LoseIt app group as the memo and paper and pencil group received live counseling at biweekly intervals and the LoseIt group did not. No significant difference was found in HEI scores across all categories, however a trend was noted for total HEI score with higher scores among the memo and paper and pencil group participants p=0.091. Conclusion, no significant difference was detected between users of the smart phone app LoseIt and memo and paper and pencil groups. More research is needed to determine the impact of in-person counseling versus user feedback provided with the LoseIt smart phone app. / Dissertation/Thesis / M.S. Nutrition 2011

No Brasil, desde 2001, documentos assinados com certificados digitais ICP-Brasil têm validade legal e, recentemente, têm se difundido muito devido a ações de fomento realizadas pelo governo que são visíveis em leis, normas e na utilização de documentos como e-CPF, e-CNPJ e doravante o Registro Único de Identidade Civil (RIC). Os documentos supracitados são cartões inteligentes (ou smart cards) que armazenam certificados digitais e, consequentemente, podem ser usados para realizar assinatura digital. Embora leitores de smart cards (também conhecidos como CAD – Card Acceptance Device) estejam populares e venham sendo utilizados, como é possível constatar, por exemplo, na Receita Federal e na Justiça Superior, a grande maioria os leitores de cartões inteligentes atualmente disponíveis funcionam apenas ligados a computadores pessoais. A grande popularização de tablets e telefones celulares inteligentes (ou smart phones) tem gerado uma forte tendência de utilização destes dispositivos móveis para a realização de transações eletrônicas como compras, transferências bancárias, envio de e-mails e outros. Dessa forma, é desejável assinar documentos digitalmente, através de um certificado digital armazenado em um cartão inteligente, a partir de um dispositivo móvel, como por exemplo, um celular. Este trabalho apresenta o projeto e implementação de um dispositivo leitor e escritor portátil de cartões inteligentes, denominado SCREADMOD (Smart Card Reader for Mobile Devices). Ele foi desenvolvido para ser acoplado e/ou utilizado de forma integrada com objetos inteligentes (celulares, computadores pessoais, tablets PC?s, etc.), que possam se comunicar utilizando a tecnologia de comunicação sem fios Bluetooth. Para demonstrar a viabilidade técnica do protótipo, um exemplo de aplicativo que executa sobre o sistema operacional móvel Android foi desenvolvido.

Context: Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) is a phenomenon in which new-born-infants die, often during sleeping, and no cause of death is identified after the autopsy and examination. Assumptions can be made in order to understand what happened to the infant, e.g. heart failures and insufficient breathing rate due to the position of the infant, although deeper studies are hard to be performed, since recording real-cases of sudden infant death on camera is not so trivial. Objectives: Our main objective with the work hereby presented is to perform a study on practical issues that may arise when one is contemplating to build a mobile application for monitoring the heart rate of individuals. These issues may include the levels of accuracy of heart rate measurements that can be retrieved by the current technology, best room conditions for the application to work and positioning of the device in respect to the subject under monitoring. Our secondary objective with this work is to present a heart rate monitor prototype application at a conceptual level. Methods: We conducted a literature review and an analysis of the current available technology, approaches and applications for smart-phones. We conducted experiments on a controlled environment by taking heart rate measurements and comparing results obtained from one smart phone application with results obtained with one standard electrocardiogram tool. After gathering the outputs of the experiments, we analyzed the patterns with the ultimate goal to identify the best set of parameters for the application to work. Results: Our main achievements were obtained through the data that we collected. Although related this work with SIDS, we collected data from adults. The procedures for obtaining the Heart Rate with the application analyze the skin of an individual and, thus, it does not matter if it is an infant or adult. We identified relevant parameters that affect directly the performance of the application, leading it to malfunction. Finally, we proposed a prototype of a mobile heart rate monitoring, that we named The Mobile Heart Rate Monitoring System (MHRMS) at a conceptual level, adding-up functionality to the existing technology and also outlining the best conditions and positioning for it to work correctly. Conclusions: The main conclusion that we reached is that it is reasonable to make use of the current technology that are available in today’s smart phones for having a trustworthy heart rate monitoring tool.

This master thesis project studies behavior and actions of older users in China, with emphasis on the influence of vision decrease on older peopleʼs using experience. Related data was collected through the action research process and user behavior was studied. The project can be divided into two parts: user study and action research. In the user study section, user problems were posed and studied thoroughly with three user investigation methods: questionnaire, interview and ethnographic observation. Analysis was then carried out according to the study outcomes. Based on the user study results, action research direction was elicited to mainly focus on three aspects: font and icon study, as well as touch-screen interaction pattern research. Contextual inquiry was adopted as the primary research method; “Text-in-screen” prototype; “Look and feel” prototype and the platform iOS were used as tools to complete the research. At the end, explicit criteria of fonts and icons that better suits older users with poor vision was established and usersʼ adaptability for touch-screen smart phone system was explored.

Yes / Viewing one’s smartphone whilst walking commonly leads to a slowing of walking. Slowing walking-speed may occur because of safety concerns or because of visual constraints. We determine how walking-induced phone motion affects the ability to read on-screen information. Phone-reading performance (PRP) was assessed whilst participants walked on a treadmill at various speeds. The fastest speed was repeated, wearing an elbow-brace (Braced) or with the phone mounted stationary (Fixed). An audible cue (‘text-alert’), indicated participants had 2 seconds to lift/view the phone and read aloud a series of digits. PRP was the number of digits read correctly. Each condition was repeated 5 times. 3D-motion analyses determined phone-motion relative to the head, from which the variability in acceleration in viewing distance, and in the gaze angles in the up-down and right-left directions were assessed. A main-effect of condition indicated PRP decreased with walking speed; particularly so for the Braced and Fixed conditions (p=0.022). Walking condition also affected the phone’s relative motion (p / Research Development Fund Publication Prize Award winner, Oct 2021.
