Description

As the number of sensors on smart phones continues to grow, these devices can automatically track data from the user's environment, including geolocation, time of day, movement, and other sensor data. Making sense of this data in an ethical manner that respects the privacy of smartphone users is just one of the many challenges faced by researchers. In this podcast, Dr. Anind Dey, director of the Human Computer Interaction Institute (HCII) at CMU, and Dr. Jeff Boleng, principal researcher at the SEI, introduce context-aware computing and discuss a collaboration to help dismounted soldiers using context derived from sensors on them and their mobile devices, to ensure that they have the information and sensor support they need to optimize their mission performance.
