Ageing is associated with cognitive decline, ranging from normal to mild cognitive impairment or dementia. This leads to physical and cognitive impairments, which are risk factors for loss of autonomy. Therefore, cognitive and physical training are important for cognitively impaired older adults. The combination of both may represent an efficiency...
Several studies have demonstrated that instrumented insoles enable the quantification of steps taken in people with or without walking limitations. However, the number and location of imbedded pressure sensors in an insole vary considerably in the literature, resulting in variable step count accuracies.
