Exercise Intervention and Outcomes
- Diagnostic testing capabilities include exercise performance, VO2 max, exercise stress testing, strength testing, body composition (including abdominal obesity) and bone density evaluation.
Human Motion
- Assessment of human movement (free-living and robot-assisted) and human and robotic testing of sensor technologies.
Living Science
- Evaluate biosensor performance in healthy participants or participants who are at risk for chronic disease while living in a natural environment.
Room Calorimeter
- Capability to measure 24-hour human energy expenditure for purposes of movement sensor calibration and validation, and to conduct studies requiring assessment of energy balance and energy metabolism.
Sleep Monitoring
- Lab Equipped with partial and whole-head EEG systems for recording sleep physiology (sleep staging). A central control room will allow for on-line observation of sleep and monitoring of sleep in populations from infants to the elderly.
