Book excerpt: The management of movement disorders is undergoing rapid transformation through the use of innovative health technologies, such as wearable sensors, mobile apps, robotics, and telemedicine systems. These technologies continue to evolve, providing new solutions for early diagnosis, remote monitoring, tailored treatments, and enhanced rehabilitative strategies that cater to individual needs through personalized approaches. With the aid of new health technologies, motor abnormalities can be sensitively recognized and objectively assessed, providing quantifiable measures to detect subtle changes associated with treatment response and disease progression. Moreover, long-term instrumental monitoring offers the opportunity for improving therapeutic strategies by gathering ecological data directly at patients’ homes in free-living situations.
