摘要:The people-centric sensing community is paying substantial attention to the smartphone asan ad hoc, low-cost, and dense sensing method because it permits people to participate easily in sensingactivities, i.e., just by carrying it as usual. People carry their smartphones in various manners,rendering measurement results unreliable. For example, humidity is typically higher in a trouserpocket than around the neck as a result of sweat. In this article, we propose a platform for peoplecentricsensing that considers the on-body position of a smartphone as metadata. A generalarchitecture is presented, and a universal serial bus-based external sensing module for an Androidbasedterminal is developed. A heatstroke alert map that visualizes the heatstroke risk is presented asan application based on both the collected raw data and metadata using the platform.
