Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	The feasibility of digital and remote monitoring technologies	determined by evaluating: Ease of deployment and initial set-up, utility of technology and user experience as reported by the usability surveys and interview questionnaires (measured by means of Standard Usability Questionnaire score ranges from 10 to 50, higher score indicating a better usability); Total time and percentage of continuous data collection for each stream of data and frequency and distribution of missing data points.; Mutual consistency of data from multiple, related data streams; Data utility reports; Responses from participants with PD and care partners regarding ease of use and comfort of technologies in study; Adherence of participants to active tasks and use of the devices	8 weeks
Secondary	Correlation with standard measures	Correlation of data from the included digital technologies and their relationship to standard measures (correlations with scores from MDS-UPDRS, PDQ-8 and SE-ADL)	8 weeks
