Abstract

Previous research has shown that exercise can be an effective means of treating patients with mild traumatic brain injury. However, compliance with prescribed exercise regimen has been low. Design of an ecosystem for utilizing a wrist worn fitness tracking watch is described which is aimed at increasing patient compliance with the prescribed exercise. The hardware and software structure of the ecosystem are described, and examples of the system function are presented.
