A smart mirror to promote a healthy lifestyle

ICT solutions to foster behavioural change have been shown to be effective in implementing primary prevention in terms of a healthy lifestyle. Primary prevention is the most viable approach to reduce the socio-economic burden of chronic and widespread diseases, such as cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. In this paper, we present a novel multisensory device, the Wize Mirror, which is under development in the EU FP7 Project SEMEOTICONS. The Wize Mirror detects and monitors over time semeiotic face signs related to cardio-metabolic risk, and encourages users to reduce their risk by improving their lifestyle.
