However, the underlying sensorineural deficits are often difficult to diagnose due to compensatory mechanisms such as sensory substitution, multisensory integration and brain plasticity. The Multisens consortium aims to develop, test and evaluate a technology-based, data-driven application for home-based prognostics and diagnostics of sensory disorders, particularly those affecting spatial orientation, balance, and gait. The work will focus on three major challenges:
- Developing resource-efficient algorithms for data analysis within the home-based application.
- Gaining insights into human and environmental factors to guide the design of this technology.
- Building a database of reference parameter sets tailored for different target groups.
