Place-onas: shared resource for designing body tracking applications.

Developments in computer vision technology have led to a plethora of new body tracking applications. These applications share a challenge in accounting for characteristics of the specific places in which they are intended to be used. We present the concept of Place-onas, representations of "typical" places, as a shared resource to support multidisciplinary team discussions during the development of body tracking applications. We present an example Place-ona drawn from ASSESS MS, a computer vision application that supports the clinical assessment of Multiple Sclerosis. We describe its usage, drawing out how it supported design work, and conclude with a discussion of future work.
