INESC TEC research highlights need to improve synchronisation of physiological data from different devices

In biomedical research and clinical monitoring, teams increasingly rely on the simultaneous use of multiple wearable and physiological sensors, which make it possible to collect different types of data using various devices - and this is where the real challenge begins. To ensure a reliable analysis of the information, the data streams need to be properly synchronised. An INESC TEC study found that 58% of multi-device systems reported in the literature have never assessed synchronisation latency - a gap that R&D can help close.
