Abstract

This paper describes the user centered development of a mobile assistance and supervision system for cardiac disease patients. Smartphones are used to collect data from wireless sensors like ECG, blood pressure or oxygen saturation sensors while a patient is exercising outdoors. All data from the wireless sensors as well as GPS information is sent to a supervision center where doctors and sport therapists analyze the data in a collaborative and interactive setting. We here present the User Centered Design process, the technical realization as well as the interaction modalities of our system.
