Cover Story: This article describes how the achievements of technology in the field of the multi-parameter monitoring of physical activity, in addition to data transfer and processing, can enable the organization of multi-station circular-reverberant systems to remotely manage patients during exercise therapy. The use of devices equipped with sensors allows information on the patient's condition as well as on the environment to be collected. These data can be used on-site through devices (e.g., a mobile phone or tablet) or transmitted to central units where they can be stored and processed through the use of artificial intelligence or data mining solutions. The system provides different possible outputs to healthcare professionals, companies that produce devices, and patients that use devices themselves, contributing to the management of the environment in which physical activity takes place.
