1. A system for detecting activity related to non-verbal acoustic energy generated by a subject comprising:
- (a) a sensor mountable on or in a body region of the subject, said sensor being capable of sensing the non-verbal acoustic energy; and
(b) a processing unit being capable of processing the non-verbal acoustic energy sensed by said sensor and deriving an activity related signature therefrom, thereby enabling classification of a specific activity associated with the non-verbal acoustic energy.

Abstract
A system for detecting non-verbal acoustic energy generated by a subject is provided. The system includes a sensor mountable on or in a body region of the subject, the sensor being capable of sensing the non-verbal acoustic energy; and a processing unit being capable of processing the non-verbal acoustic energy sensed by the sensor and deriving an activity related signature therefrom, thereby enabling identification of a specific activity associated with the non-verbal acoustic energy.
