Now you can add Intel to the list. Today the company announced a partnership with the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinsons Research that aims to track and analyze those with Parkinsons disease using wearable devices. With this approach, researchers could go from looking at a very small number of data points and burdensome pencil-and-paper patient diaries collected sporadically to analyzing hundreds of readings per second from thousands of patients and attaining a critical mass of data to detect patterns and make new discoveries, Intel said in a blog post announcing the partnership. Using these devices, Intel hopes to record things like tremors, sleep patterns, gait, and balance at what is says is a rate of more than 300 observations per second.
