Participatory Sensing
A Mobile Sensing Network augments mobile devices, such as mobile phones, with sensing capabilities. Through the use of custom, generic sensor interfaces, we aim to turn these devices into mobile measurement stations for measuring aspects of the environment.
We are currently experimenting with sensors attached to mobile phones and software to localise, upload and aggregate the sensory data. Social tagging adds a layer of meaning to the quantitative information which is visualised through websites and on the mobile device itself.
