They performed walking tasks on a gait mat while instrumented with a watch, phone, and sensor insoles as well as several speech tasks on multiple recording devices. <b><i>Results:</i></b> Step count and temporal gait metrics derived from a single lumbar accelerometer are highly precise; spatial gait metrics are consistently 20% shorter than gait mat measurements. The insole’s algorithm only captures about 72% of steps but does have precision in measuring temporal gait metrics. Mobile device voice recordings provide similar results to traditional recorders for average signal pitch and sufficient signal-to-noise ratio for analysis when hand-held. Lossless compression techniques are advised for signal processing. <b><i>Conclusions:</i></b> Gait metrics from a single lumbar accelerometer sensor are in reasonable concordance with standard measurements, with some variation between devices and across individual metrics. Finally, participants in this study were familiar with mobile devices and had high acceptance of potential future continuous wear for clinical trials. 2019-10-29 15:03:38 Wearable sensors Gait Speech Voice Movement disorders
