Service Sector Management (SSM)
Service Sector Management research activities span five subject areas and are interdisciplinary, business-engaged and international in scope
Second Lives for the Third Age (SL3A)
We surveyed a group of older people to explore what activities they would like to enact in a virtual world. We then prototyped an age appropriate garden environment in Second Life and piloted it with a small group of older users.

Functional Electrical Stimulation using array electrodes
Developing a system for correction of foot-drop using FES capable of automatically finding good electrode sites.
The smartfloor
The smartfloor may be considered as a large-scale touch-screen computer interface with behaviour that is determined by application software running on a controlling computer. Custom games may be written, or existing games adapted relatively easily.
The use of depth cameras in biomechanics
In this ongoing project we are exploring the use of depth cameras in several analysis contexts including body segment tracking, whole-body person tracking and three-dimensional scanning.
Field based gait retraining to reduce lower extremity loads in runners
In this project, we developed a field-based system to measure tibial shock and provide biofeedback for gait retraining.
