Abstract
Obesity in younger age groups has been recognized as an alarming key predictor for obesity in adulthood. PEGASO aims to develop a solution involving wearable devices and an mHealth based application running on a smartphone and cloud computing infrastructure, with the capability of gradually changing harmful behaviours and encouraging healthy habits in adolescents. We present an assessment strategy in the short and long term to evaluate behaviours associated with the risk of adolescent obesity from scientifically informed indicators.
