Remote sensing mental health: A systematic review of factors essential to clinical translation from validation research.

To fully harness the potential of remote sensing in mental health, issues such as reliance on self-reported assessments, and lack of socio-demographic context pertaining to generalizability need to be addressed. Striking a balance between resolution, data quality, and participant burden whilst clearly reporting limitations, will ensure effective technology use. The scant reporting on participants' socio-demographic data suggests a knowledge gap in understanding the effectiveness of passive sensing techniques in disadvantaged populations.
