Wearables – Unreliable Witnesses Jon Crowcroft,FF http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~jac22 With Helen Oliver, PhD student & RA
Incurably Informed…. • So wearables are become ubiquitous • Unsurprisingly, since they came out of research in ubiquitous computing • However, we still aint sorted reliability • Nor do privacy concerns help • Or rather, we need to respect privacy • So what’s the data science problem?
We don’t know what we don’t know • Both data and meta-data • We have fitbits, smart watches, phones • Even cycling jackets that speak to our phone • https://www.visijax.com/products/led-jackets-and-gilets/ • Hearing aids • But people wash them and they stop working • Or they cycle out of reach of the cell tower • And people have personal quirks • About privacy – • taking device off or swapping • Or who they let see what when • Need empirical study.. … …
