  • Abstract
    We propose a method for recognizing workers´ routine activities by combining location information and body movements of a user. We describe methods for capturing and recognizing the nursing context with an infrared-ID location sensor system and accelerometers worn by a user. We show experimental results of recognizing typical activities in a nursing scenario in a laboratory setting.
