Popis: The following chapter describes new functions and applications that the authors have developed for the capacitive sensor system SensFloor® during the last five years. Some of these features have already found their way into the market while others are still in the research phase. From the first large-scale installations in 2012 up to now, the focus was put on applications for healthcare and ambient assisted living (AAL). However, as will be described later in this chapter, the authors have realized projects in many other domains as well, such as medical assessments, retail, security, and multimedia. The chapter starts out with a description of the underlying technology. After that, examples of the various domains of application are presented. The authors conclude with a summary and future research plans.
