title: A blended design approach for pervasive healthcare: bringing together users, experts and technology.
abstract: Pervasive healthcare is beginning to investigate how novel sensory technologies can be used to measure body movements and provide various forms of feedback. This position paper reflects on a blended design approach that uses a combination of technology inspiration, consultation with experts and user-centred design for the development of a personalized pervasive healthcare system to support stroke rehabilitation.
