Warfighter Analytics using Smartphones for Health (WASH)

Abstract

The Warfighter Analytics using Smartphones for Health (WASH) program will pioneer analytic techniques for continuous and real-time assessment of warfighter physiological health and cognitive state based on the multiple sensor data streams generated by modern smartphones. Recent research in the area of smartphone biometrics has shown the feasibility of measuring user physiological and behavioral parameters for purposes of user authentication. WASH will explore extending these smartphone biometrics to provide the capability to reliably measure additional user physiological and behavioral parameters relevant to health assessment and the diagnosis of disease. If successful, WASH will produce a mobile application that continuously and reliably assesses warfighter health and combat/mission readiness. WASH will be closely coordinated with the Naval Health Research Center and the Armed Forces Health Surveillance Branch.
