This disclosure relates generally to real time analysis of range of motion (ROM), wherein ROM is a measurement of movement around a specific joint or body part. The existing techniques for ROM fail for measurements made in certain planes and are not very effective for ROM measurements for extremely slow and very fast movements. The disclosed provides a real time analysis of ROM based on computation of range of motion (ROM) of a joint and a set of ROM parameters using a gyroscope. The gyroscope collects data from a subject at pre-defined neutral position of the subject as well as a pre-defined rotation movement of a joint of the subject. The received data is corrected for bias and processed at real time to analyze the ROM by computing range of motion (ROM) of a joint and a set of ROM parameters.

Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are the pandemics of modern era and are generating huge impact in the modern society. Conventional methods are inaccurate due to a challenge in handling data from heterogenous sensors.

Initially, the system receives a raw data from a plurality of heterogenous sensors associated with the user. The raw data is further transformed into a metadata format associated with the corresponding sensor. The transformed data is temporally aligned based on a time based slotting. An algorithm pipeline corresponding to a disorder to be analyzed is selected from a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) based on a sensor metadata and a plurality of algorithm metadata corresponding to a plurality of algorithms stored in an algorithm database and an algorithm pipeline. The corresponding disorder is analyzed using the algorithm pipeline.

Tracking motion using inertial sensors embedded in commercial grade wearables like smartwatches has proved to be a challenging task, especially if real-time tracking is a requirement. Present disclosure provides system and method wherein data from sensors are obtained and scaled. Further, Euler Rodrigues Matrix (ERM) is generated based delta value obtained using sensor data.

Windowing technique is applied for subsets of feature vectors to obtain label for each window and machine learning model is trained with the label and window. Further, during real-time, sensor data is obtained, and steps of ERM, feature vectors generation, and application of windowing technique are repeated, and coordinates are estimated for each window in real-time based on which trajectories are tracked in real-time for each window.

Conventionally, Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI)-based solutions have been extensively devised in the domains of indoor localization and context-aware applications. These solutions are primarily based on a path-loss attenuation model, with customizations on RSSI processing and are usually regression-based. Further, existing solutions for distance and proximity estimation incorporate data features derived only from the RSSI values themselves with additional features like frequency of occurrence of certain RSSI values thus are less accurate. Present disclosure provides systems and methods that implement a classification model that uses RSSI as well as temporal features derived from the received data packets. The model uses data from multiple devices in different environments for training and can execute proximity decisions on the device itself. The method of the present disclosure monitoring proximity between a plurality of devices implements/uses an effective protocol for decision aggregation to suppress false positive proximity events generated and further stabilizes device's response.

The present disclosure provides wearable apparatus and method for calculating drift-free plantar pressure parameters for gait monitoring of an individual. Most conventional techniques use different kind of sensors placed in in-sole based wearable apparatus but are costly and not effective in calculating accurate plantar pressure parameters. The disclosed wearable apparatus uses off-the shelf piezoelectric sensors that are widely available in market with less cost. The drift-free plantar pressure parameters are calculated using drift-free static pressure data obtained by numerically integrating acquired dynamic sensor data from the piezoelectric sensors, using a LiTCEM correction mechanism. A 6-DOF Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU sensor) helps in isolating zero-pressure duration indicating when a foot of the individual is in air during a stride, while obtaining the drift-free static pressure data. The disclosed wearable apparatus calculate the drift-free plantar pressure parameters for long duration and facilitates monitoring walking patterns of the individual.
