It's using the multitude of readings given by for an activity tracker, to indicate the mobility of the PD patient. Typically the activity tracker, (Wearable Device), wirelessly sends information about the wearers limb movements, heart rate, sleep pattern, steps, etc, to a smart phone on which an appropriate app use this info to generate charts and graphs. In this Phase 3 study, a custom app on the smart phone will send all the info to a central data storage location, (Cloud) from where it can be accessed by the clinical study researchers. It means they have 24/7 data about participators instantly available! It can only increase the accuracy and speed of a clinical study...
